Sports aren't just about the court; they are about the mentorship that guides you there. Meet the coaches at IB Sports Academy who are building the next generation of players in Delhi NCR.
A huge round of applause for me, Coach Ishwar Bhati. My journey is a reminder that success is not just about medals, but about the values of teamwork and perseverance I instill in my players.
"A great coach can change a life." This quote by John Wooden is what I live by. It's about the belief I instill and the confidence I build that truly makes a difference in a player's journey.
In this interview, I share my thoughts on the role of coaches and why students should embrace sports. My message is simple: "Khelge toh badhoge!" Sports build character, teamwork, and resilience.

About Meet the Mentors: Our Coaching Team
Our coaching panel is led by Jr. NBA and SAI NIS certified trainers who prioritize your child's specific development path. We don't believe in a one-size-fits-all training method. Whether it’s Coach Bhanu focusing on shooting precision or Coach Chiranjeev building defensive agility, each mentor brings a unique technical expertise to ensure your child gets targeted, game-ready feedback in every session.
Your Child’s Development, Our Priority
At IB Sports Academy, we understand that a good coach changes the game, but a great coach changes a life. That is why our team comprises experienced, certified professionals who are not just skilled trainers but mentors dedicated to grassroots basketball development in Delhi NCR.
Meet the Experts
- Head Coach Ishwar Bhati: With a decade of experience and recent recognition with the 'Dr. Ajmer Singh Award', I oversee our high-performance curriculum and ensure that our academy maintains a standard of excellence on and off the court.
- Coach Bhim Singh (Bhanu Sir): A Jr. NBA and SAI NIS certified veteran with 12+ years of experience. He specializes in advanced shooting mechanics and physical strengthening, making him the go-to for players looking to sharpen their competitive edge.
- Coach Chiranjeev Kumar: Also a Jr. NBA certified professional with 8+ years of experience, he focuses on high-IQ game analysis, 1-on-1 defensive rotations, and maintaining the competitive spirit our students are known for.
The Coaching Philosophy
We follow our mantra: 'Khelge Toh Badhoge'. This means our coaches do more than teach dribbling and layups. We integrate injury prevention, video analysis for game-ready IQ, and strength conditioning into the daily routine. Our batch sizes are kept between 15-20 students to ensure each child gets personal attention from our assistants.
Whether you are looking for beginner classes for your 4-year-old or elite training for a tournament-bound junior, our team is structured to guide every skill level. We keep the atmosphere disciplined yet fun, ensuring kids stay off their phones and on the court.
IB Sports Academy
I’m Ishwar Bhati, and I’ve handpicked this team for one reason: they love the game as much as they love teaching it. We’re a group of coaches who know that a player's growth depends entirely on the quality of guidance they get at the grassroots level.
