Team
The portal is a brainchild of an IIM graduate - Neel Shah who did his MBA in Marketing & Strategy and was in constant lookout of interesting business ideas. Being a part of the cultural committee and the entrepreneurship cell in college, he was looking for a idea where he could convert his hobby into a profitable business. The 'merger' of sports and stocks was out of passion for both.

But the venture wouldn't have been possible without the support and guidance of his friends who were as passionate as he was. Cheers to Betro (Nirav), Bobo (Rushabh), Bottle (Darshak), Chikno (Rinkal), Keshu (Chirag) & Sattu (Satyaveer) who have contributed to the venture in their own unique way.

Mission: To provide a platform for sports enthusiasts to increase their level of involvement by encouraging them to use their hunch while gaining a chance to win cash rewards.
