New Delhi, Mar 10: India’s long jump champion Shaili Singh joined Adidas ‘Impossible is Nothing’ campaign which highlighted a global collective of inspiring women who are breaking down barriers in sport and beyond. The long jumper became a part of Adidas’ strong and diverse community of women athletes like Mirabai Chanu, Manika Batra, Lovlina Borgohain, Hima Das, Nikhat Zareen, and many more. The 18-year-old made her first big mark on the international stage when she won a silver medal at the World Athletics U20 Championships. Her hard work and belief in herself has brought the country many honors, including the silver medal at the World Athletics, two gold medals in Senior Women Championship and U20 National Championship in 2021. On her association with adidas, Shaili said: “I am overjoyed at joining the Adidas family… It fills me with pride to see my name as an Adidas athlete amongst some of the most distinguished athletes. I am confident that this partnership will be the enabler in my quest to create possibilities not just for myself, but for the future of women in sport.” “We are stoked to welcome Shaili, the youngest athlete of the 3-stripe family. She embodies our ‘Impossible is Nothing’ attitude,” Sunil Gupta, Senior Director, Adidas India said. “From a young girl who ran barefoot to winning the silver medal at the world athletic championships, she has created her own possibilities. We continue to celebrate women in sport and aim to inspire everyone to make their impossible possible, specifically the next generation of women,” he added.
