Mon p\u00e8re pratiquait plusieurs sports, dont le cricket. Il est ma plus grande source d'inspiration : c'est gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 lui que j'ai pu me lancer dans ce sport. \u00c0 l'\u00e9poque, il n'y avait pas de cricket f\u00e9minin dans mon pays.<strong> Je ne faisais que jouer avec des gar\u00e7ons<\/strong> et avec mon p\u00e8re. Mais un jour, le directeur de mon \u00e9cole est venu me voir et m'a dit qu'il me regardait jouer depuis pr\u00e8s de six mois, et il m'a demand\u00e9 pourquoi je voulais jouer au cricket. \u00c0 l'\u00e9poque, il y avait sept ou huit autres sports, mais je ne jouais qu'au cricket avec mes amis. Il m'a dit : \"Regardez autour de vous, il y a tellement d'autres sports que vous pouvez facilement pratiquer. Pourquoi se battre et jouer au cricket, qui n'est pas tr\u00e8s connu ? Le hockey \u00e9tait le sport le plus important, pas le cricket. Je lui ai dit clairement que je voulais jouer au cricket, que c'\u00e9tait mon r\u00eave et que je voulais devenir joueur de cricket. <strong>C'est alors qu'il m'a dit qu'il ouvrirait une acad\u00e9mie de cricket pour moi.<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Ce fut un tournant dans ma vie. J'ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 aller \u00e0 l'acad\u00e9mie de cricket et je suis all\u00e9e dans chaque classe pour demander \u00e0 toutes les filles si elles pouvaient venir me soutenir parce que je voulais jouer au cricket et que pour cela, j'avais besoin d'une \u00e9quipe. J'avais besoin d'autres filles. Ce n'est qu'une fois que j'aurais une \u00e9quipe que je pourrais aller de l'avant.<br\/>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div ><br\/><strong>Pensiez-vous qu'il \u00e9tait vraiment possible pour les femmes de jouer au cricket avant que le directeur ne vous contacte ? <\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Harmanpreet : Si mon directeur ne m'avait pas propos\u00e9 d'ouvrir l'acad\u00e9mie de cricket pour femmes, je ne pense pas que j'aurais pu continuer \u00e0 jouer en tant que professionnelle. Je n'avais pas le choix.<strong> Je n'ai vu aucune fille jouer au cricket, ni \u00e0 aucun autre sport d'ailleurs.<\/strong> Je viens d'une tr\u00e8s petite ville o\u00f9 seuls les gar\u00e7ons et les hommes pratiquaient tous les sports, mais pas les filles.<br\/>\n<br\/>J'\u00e9tais d\u00e9j\u00e0 en onzi\u00e8me ann\u00e9e lorsque nous avons ouvert l'acad\u00e9mie - j'allais entrer \u00e0 l'universit\u00e9 un an plus tard. \u00c0 cette \u00e9poque, j'ai d\u00fb d\u00e9cider si je voulais seulement \u00e9tudier ou faire du sport. J'\u00e9tais bon dans tous les sports, mais le cricket \u00e9tait quelque chose qui me tenait \u00e0 c\u0153ur. J'ai toujours voulu r\u00e9ussir dans le cricket parce que c'est un sport tr\u00e8s c\u00e9l\u00e8bre en Inde. Il passe toujours \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision.<br\/>\n<br\/>Ma famille m'a beaucoup soutenue et ne m'a jamais emp\u00each\u00e9e de jouer. Ils \u00e9taient d'accord pour que je joue avec des gar\u00e7ons. <strong>Mais les gens venaient voir mes parents et disaient : \"Elle joue avec des gar\u00e7ons ? Ce n'est pas une bonne chose.<\/strong> Pourquoi la laissez-vous jouer avec des gar\u00e7ons ? Elle devrait pratiquer un sport qui appartient aux femmes. Mais ma famille m'a toujours soutenue et m'a clairement fait comprendre qu'elle ne m'emp\u00eacherait pas de jouer. D\u00e8s que j'ai eu l'occasion de jouer \u00e0 l'acad\u00e9mie, ce sont eux qui m'y ont emmen\u00e9e.

Pourriez-vous envisager de jouer un jour en tant que joueuse professionnelle ?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Harmanpreet : En fait, non. C'est lorsque j'ai rencontr\u00e9 le directeur de mon \u00e9cole et qu'il m'a demand\u00e9 si je voulais jouer au cricket, <strong>Ma premi\u00e8re question a \u00e9t\u00e9 : \u201cLes filles jouent-elles au cricket ?\u201d.<\/strong> Je n'avais jamais vu de fille jouer au cricket et je n'avais jamais regard\u00e9 un seul match \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision. Il m'a dit qu'il regardait l'\u00e9quipe f\u00e9minine, qu'elle repr\u00e9sentait aussi l'Inde et que si j'\u00e9tais assez bonne, je pourrais aussi faire partie de cette \u00e9quipe. \u00c0 partir de ce jour, mon r\u00eave a \u00e9t\u00e9 de rejoindre cette \u00e9quipe. Mon r\u00eave \u00e9tait de jouer avec elles et de faire quelque chose de grand pour mon pays. Je pense que lorsque je l'ai rencontr\u00e9, les 30\/40 premi\u00e8res minutes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 consacr\u00e9es \u00e0 une conversation sur les choses dont je r\u00eavais. Il m'a donn\u00e9 une image claire de mon objectif et m'a fait comprendre que je pouvais l'atteindre.

On a demand\u00e9 au public de deviner qui serait le prochain ambassadeur de la marque, <strong>80% des personnes pensent que le prochain ambassadeur sera un homme.

PUMA a jou\u00e9 un tr\u00e8s grand r\u00f4le et a \u00e9t\u00e9 d'un grand soutien dans ce domaine : la campagne nous permet de sensibiliser les gens, de les amener \u00e0 r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re dont ils peuvent faire du sport et \u00e0 la fa\u00e7on dont ils peuvent s'y prendre. <strong>les femmes peuvent aussi changer la donne<\/strong> et les champions.

Je peux changer le cours des choses, je peux prendre cette responsabilit\u00e9 et apporter ces petits changements qui nous permettront d'\u00eatre confiantes sur le terrain, de prendre conscience de la situation. J'ai toujours pens\u00e9 que l'une des choses les plus importantes \u00e9tait la condition physique. Si vous \u00eates plus athl\u00e9tique, si vous \u00eates plus pr\u00eat mentalement et physiquement, vous pouvez toujours apporter ces changements. Lorsque j'ai rejoint l'\u00e9quipe, nous d\u00e9pendions davantage de nos comp\u00e9tences. Aujourd'hui, nous travaillons tr\u00e8s dur sur la condition physique, nous nous concentrons sur la sensibilisation en Inde pour amener plus de gens \u00e0 faire du sport par le biais de l'\u00e9ducation physique. <strong>Qu'il y ait du sport<\/strong> lanc\u00e9e r\u00e9cemment. <strong>Nous croyons vraiment que le sport est n\u00e9cessaire pour tout le monde : tout le monde peut pratiquer n'importe quel sport.<\/strong> Le sport peut changer votre vie.

Les t\u00e9l\u00e9spectateurs devaient deviner quel serait le prochain ambassadeur de la marque.

Back then, there were seven or eight other sports happening \u2013 but I was only ever playing cricket with my friends. And he said to me, look around, there are so many other sports where you can easily go and play. Why struggle and play cricket which is not very famous? Hockey was the biggest sport, not cricket. I just told him clearly that I wanted to play cricket, that cricket is my dream and I want to become a cricketer. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;That\u2019s when he told me that he would open a cricket academy for me.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;That was a turning point in my life.

I needed other girls. I could only take the game ahead once I had a team.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"contentRight\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Did you think it was really possible for women to play cricket before the principal approached you? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Harmanpreet: If my principal did not approach me to open the cricket academy for women, I don\u2019t think I would have been able to pursue the game as a professional. There was no option for me.\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt; I did not see any single girl play cricket \u2013 or any other sports for that matter.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; I come from a very small town where only boys and men were playing all the sports, but not girls.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;I was already in 11th grade when we opened the academy \u2013 I was going to university a year later. At that time, I had to decide whether I wanted to only study or do sport. I was good in all sports, but cricket was something which was very close to my heart. I always wanted to do really well in cricket because it is so famous in India. It is always on TV.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;For me, my family were so supportive and never stopped me from playing. They were okay with me playing with boys. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;But people used to come to my parents and were saying, she\u2019s playing with boys? That is not the right thing.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Why are you allowing her to play with boys? She should play a sport that belongs to women. But my family still supported me and were very clear that they were not going to stop me from playing. So once I got the opportunity to play at the academy, they were the ones taking me there. They were the ones waiting for me to make things change one day, where people will not stop their children from playing any sport.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"width\":\"Wide\"} \/--><!-- wp:puma\/row-text-single {\"content\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Were you aware there was a professional Indian women\u2019s cricket team?

He said to me that he watched the women\u2019s team, that they also represent India and if I was good enough, I could also be a part of that team. And from that day forward my dream was to reach there. My dream was to play with them and to do something big for my country. I think when I met him, the first 30\/40 minutes was a conversation on the things I used to dream about. It was a clear picture of my goal, and that I could actually reach it.

Only 20% of the people thought about a female athlete.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; But I think things are changing now \u2013 and PUMA is putting in a lot of effort to make those changes. I think we have to keep doing these campaigns. We must keep bringing this awareness back home in India and even globally, where people can support women in sport.

I always felt one of the biggest things is also fitness. If you are more athletic, if you are more ready mentally and physically, you can always bring those changes. And when I joined the team, we depended more on our skill. Now the fitness is something which we have been working really hard on, we are focussing on raising awareness in India to bring more people into sport through \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Let There Be Sport\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; campaign launched recently. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;We really believe that sport is necessary for everyone: everyone can play any sport.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Sport can change your life.

My dad used to play a couple of sports and cricket was one of them. He is my biggest inspiration: because of him, I was able to take on the sport. Back home at that time, there was no women\u2019s cricket.\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt; I was only playing with boys\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; and with my dad. But one day, my school principal came to me and said that he had been watching me play for almost six months, and he asked me why I wanted to play cricket. Back then, there were seven or eight other sports happening \u2013 but I was only ever playing cricket with my friends. And he said to me, look around, there are so many other sports where you can easily go and play. Why struggle and play cricket which is not very famous? Hockey was the biggest sport, not cricket. I just told him clearly that I wanted to play cricket, that cricket is my dream and I want to become a cricketer. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;That\u2019s when he told me that he would open a cricket academy for me.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;That was a turning point in my life. I started going to the cricket academy and I went to every classroom and asked all the girls if they can come and support me because I want to play cricket and in order to do so, I need a team. I needed other girls. I could only take the game ahead once I had a team.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"contentRight\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Did you think it was really possible for women to play cricket before the principal approached you? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Harmanpreet: If my principal did not approach me to open the cricket academy for women, I don\u2019t think I would have been able to pursue the game as a professional. There was no option for me.\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt; I did not see any single girl play cricket \u2013 or any other sports for that matter.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; I come from a very small town where only boys and men were playing all the sports, but not girls.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;I was already in 11th grade when we opened the academy \u2013 I was going to university a year later. At that time, I had to decide whether I wanted to only study or do sport. I was good in all sports, but cricket was something which was very close to my heart. I always wanted to do really well in cricket because it is so famous in India. It is always on TV.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;For me, my family were so supportive and never stopped me from playing. They were okay with me playing with boys. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;But people used to come to my parents and were saying, she\u2019s playing with boys? That is not the right thing.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Why are you allowing her to play with boys? She should play a sport that belongs to women. But my family still supported me and were very clear that they were not going to stop me from playing. So once I got the opportunity to play at the academy, they were the ones taking me there. They were the ones waiting for me to make things change one day, where people will not stop their children from playing any sport.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"width\":\"Wide\"} \/--><!-- wp:puma\/row-text-single {\"content\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Were you aware there was a professional Indian women\u2019s cricket team?

He said to me that he watched the women\u2019s team, that they also represent India and if I was good enough, I could also be a part of that team. And from that day forward my dream was to reach there. My dream was to play with them and to do something big for my country. I think when I met him, the first 30\/40 minutes was a conversation on the things I used to dream about. It was a clear picture of my goal, and that I could actually reach it.

Only 20% of the people thought about a female athlete.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; But I think things are changing now \u2013 and PUMA is putting in a lot of effort to make those changes. I think we have to keep doing these campaigns. We must keep bringing this awareness back home in India and even globally, where people can support women in sport.

I always felt one of the biggest things is also fitness. If you are more athletic, if you are more ready mentally and physically, you can always bring those changes. And when I joined the team, we depended more on our skill. Now the fitness is something which we have been working really hard on, we are focussing on raising awareness in India to bring more people into sport through \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Let There Be Sport\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; campaign launched recently. \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;We really believe that sport is necessary for everyone: everyone can play any sport.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Sport can change your life.
