Orphan, non Keralite kids shine in Kerala's sports tournaments

Young sports enthusiasts from Manipur and Gujarat are emerging as champions of Kerala's table tennis tournaments in the mini cadet category. Living in JDT Islam Orphanage & School, they train hard after their study hours. Being trained by the Calicut table Tennis Association, the JDT Islam Orphanage in Kozhikode boasts of nearly 6 champions in different categories. These young kids who play for the state of Kerala are a welcome relief to the sagging sports culture in the state.
