Thrive Cricket Academy is proud to announce the launch of Thrive Girls Cricket Academy, a dedicated girls-only cricket program based at Niaz Stadium, Hyderabad. The initiative is supported by the Mayor of Hyderabad, Mr. Kashif Shoro, and Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, marking a significant step forward for women’s sports development in the region.
Under the proud vision of Mayor of Hyderabad, Mr. Kashif Shoro, the TCA Girls Program was officially launched, with the opening ceremony graced by Respected Syeda Huma Naqvi, Digital Media Coordinator of Pakistan Peoples Party, who attended as the Chief Guest.
Why Hyderabad Needed a Girls-Only Cricket Academy
Despite the growing popularity of women’s cricket across Pakistan, Hyderabad, Sindh has never had a dedicated academy offering separate training classes exclusively for girls in a secure, professionally managed environment. Young girls interested in cricket had limited options — either training alongside boys in mixed groups or having no structured academy access at all.
This gap meant that talented girls in Hyderabad often had no clear pathway to learn, practice, and grow in the sport within an environment built around their comfort, privacy, and safety. Parents, too, were often hesitant to enroll their daughters in mixed programs, further limiting participation.
Thrive Girls Cricket Academy was created to directly address this gap by offering:
- Separate, girls-only training sessions with no mixed-gender classes
- A secure and private environment at Niaz Stadium, designed with the comfort and safety of female athletes as a top priority
- Professional, structured coaching tailored to different skill levels, from complete beginners to competitive players
- A safe space for parents to confidently support their daughters’ participation in sports
By solving these long-standing barriers, Thrive Girls Academy opens the door for far more girls across Hyderabad to take up cricket seriously, something the city has lacked until now.
Backed by the Mayor of Hyderabad
The launch of Thrive Girls Academy carries added significance because of its official backing. Mayor Kashif Shoro and the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation have extended their sponsorship and support to the program, reflecting a broader civic commitment to empowering girls through sports in the city.
This partnership signals that women’s sports development is being recognized at an institutional level in Hyderabad — not just as a private initiative, but as a cause worth public support and investment.
Hyderabad’s First Technology-Based Cricket Academy
Beyond being girls-only, Thrive Girls Academy also stands out as the first technology-based cricket academy in Hyderabad. Training here goes beyond traditional coaching methods and incorporates modern, data-driven tools to track and improve player performance.
This tech-forward approach allows coaches to:
- Monitor player progress with measurable, trackable performance data
- Identify technical strengths and areas for improvement more precisely
- Offer personalized feedback based on actual performance metrics rather than observation alone
- Bring a modern, professional training standard to youth cricket in the region
This makes Thrive Girls Cricket Academy not just a safe space to learn cricket, but a genuinely modern one — bringing Hyderabad’s cricket training in line with global standards.
Training Location: Niaz Stadium, Hyderabad
All sessions take place at Niaz Stadium, a well-established sporting venue in Hyderabad, providing players with quality infrastructure, proper pitches, and a professional training atmosphere.
