Geeta Phogat Sports Speaker - Profile

Geeta Phogat started her career as a freestyle wrestler and in 2010, she would go on to win India's first-ever gold medal in wrestling at the Commonwealth Games. Later, she went on to be the first-ever Indian female wrestler to qualify and represent India at the Summer Olympic Games.

Coming from an orthodox and traditional Indian family, it was widely considered to be a taboo to let women participate in sporting events in India. She shattered societal norms and followed her dreams which led her to represent India. By breaking and challenging these norms, the country has now accepted the fact that women are not inferior to their male counterparts and are more than capable of successfully chasing down their goals and making their dreams a reality.

Coming from a small village in the state of Haryana, Geeta Phogat found it extremely challenging to follow her dreams of becoming a wrestler and to work towards making them a reality. Being brought up in typical village life, t was not considered normal for girls to pursue a career in sports, let alone in a sport such as wrestling, which is considered to be a male-dominated sport. But Geeta’s father Mahavir Singh did not let that get in her way and deter her confidence and played a crucial role in shaping her wrestling career. Geeta’s determination, perseverance, and hard work came good, when she won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games, thus going on to become the first Indian woman wrestler to achieve the same.

Geeta Phogat also became the first woman wrestler to represent India at the Olympics, an accomplishment unparalleled at the time and set a bench mark for future Indian women wrestlers. Having seen what struggle is, from up close, Geeta Phogat Speaker took up to motivational speaking to explain her success story which was filled with a lot of struggle and through these stories, Geeta Phogat motivational speaker explains how she overcame obstacles sheer hard work and determination. Geeta Phogat speech inspires millions of girls in the country to go after your dreams regardless of the difficulties that you may encounter.

Having drawn inspiration from Geeta Phogat, in 2014, Babita Kumari and Vinesh Phogat, both sisters of Geeta Phogat won gold medals at the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
