Meet Dinesh Narpache- a National level Kho Kho player who had to leave his passion because of the financial condition of his family.Dinesh has been an exemplary athlete since his school days and went on to play Kho Kho at the national level not once, but three times while studying in school!

After Class 12, Dinesh cracked JEE and got placed in VNIT Nagpur, but his family was unable to pay for his tuition fees, making him drop out of the institute halfway. He then took admission in a local college for B.Sc. Mathematics. His parents used to run a hostel mess which eventually closed down due to the pandemic, after which they had to provide for the family through hard labour. Dinesh did manage to get a job after graduation, but with a salary that did not meet the needs of the family. This is when one of his friends who is a Newton School alumnus introduced him to Newton School’s Full Stack Development course.

Dinesh is currently studying with Newton School, and pledges to take the financial burden off his parents as soon as he gets placed.The best part? Dinesh hopes to start coaching children from similar backgrounds to himself in Kho Kho as soon as he gets a job through Newton School!We can’t wait to see him become a successful developer while also coaching kids from his area to play national level sports!
