    Share on

This funding round was co-led by Raj P. Narayanam (Founder of Zaggle) and Aditya Vuchi (General Partner at VCMint), with participation from Praveen Raju (Founder of Suchitra Academy) and other private investors.

Founded by Aditya Reddy and Siddharth Reddy, Gamepoint is addressing the lack of organized, high-quality sports infrastructure in Indian urban areas. The startup operates a "neighborhood sports center" model that combines physical courts with a seamless digital experience for booking and coaching.

Key Highlights of the Expansion Plan:

• Scaling Up: Gamepoint currently operates across Hyderabad and Warangal. The new funds will facilitate entry into other metros and Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities.

• Diversified Offerings: Their centers provide infrastructure and professional coaching for multiple sports, including Badminton, Basketball, Pickleball, Squash, Football, Cricket, Table Tennis, and Swimming.

• Target Audience: The startup caters to all age groups through:

• Children: Structured, high-performance coaching programs.

• Adults: Flexible "pay-and-play" formats and memberships.

• Corporates: Comprehensive sports event management and team-building solutions.

• Technology Integration: A significant portion of the funding is earmarked for strengthening the "tech-backbone" of the company, improving user engagement through their app and streamlining center operations.

Impact & Track Record:

To date, Gamepoint has successfully:

• Trained over 12,000 students through its academies.

• Facilitated sports for more than 3 lakh (300,000) unique users.

• Organized over 700 sports events for various communities and corporate clients.

Investor Perspective:

Lead investor Raj P. Narayanam noted that Gamepoint’s "disciplined operating model" and "predictable unit economics" make it a standout in the sports-tech sector. As health awareness grows across India, organized sports infrastructure is shifting from a luxury to a lifestyle necessity, positioning Gamepoint as a key beneficiary of this behavioral trend.
