HamroKhelkud.com is honoring the seven supreme athletes of all time on the occasion of its seventh anniversary. The players who have contributed significantly to Nepali sports during their time will be honored amidst an event to be held in Lalitpur the following week. Jit Bahadur KC, the first international medal winner for Nepal is one among supreme seven athletes to be felicitated in HamroKhelkud’s anniversary.
KC won a bronze medal in the Asian Athletics Championship almost 5 decades ago. KC finished third in the Marathon with a timing of 2 hours 35 minutes and 38 seconds in the championship which was held in the Philippines back then. It is the first international medal won by any Nepalese athlete. Olympian KC is still working in the National Sports Council (NSC).
Seven players including KC will be honored on the anniversary of HamroKhelkud on 4th August, 2022 (19th Shrawan, 2079). HamroKhelkud will announce the names of the players who will be honored one per day. HamroKhelkud came into operation from Sharawan 19, 2072. Moreover, this is the first time that HamroKhelkud is celebrating its anniversary publicly. HamroKhelkud has been publishing news, articles, photos, videos and other materials related to national and international sports since its inception.
Similarly, HamroKhelkud has been live telecasting various national and international competitions through its Facebook page and Youtube channel with an aim of bringing domestic competitions to the Nepali audience. In 2019, HamroKhelkud broadcasted live of the AVC Central Zone Men’s Volleyball Championship held in Nepal which was the first International Competition they broadcasted live.
As a news portal that is directly related to Nepali sports, HamroKhelkud is going to honor seven athletes of all time who have contributed to take Nepali sports to a certain height on the occasion of its seventh anniversary.
