Gujarat Titans Launch Junior Titans Season 3: Colonel Arvinder Singh’s Mission to Pull Kids Away from Gadgets and Back to the Ground

In a significant move toward social responsibility, the IPL franchise Gujarat Titans (GT) has officially launched the third edition of its flagship grassroots initiative, Junior Titans. Under the leadership of Chief Operating Officer (COO) Colonel Arvinder Singh, the program aims to address the growing concern of “screen addiction” among children. With the catchy theme “Let’s Sport Out!”, the campaign seeks to inspire the younger generation to ditch their mobile phones and tablets in favor of physical activity and outdoor play.

Digital Detox through Sports: The Core Vision of Junior Titans

The third season of Junior Titans is not just about finding the next cricket superstar; it is a movement to reclaim childhood from the clutches of digital devices. Speaking at the launch event in Ahmedabad, Colonel Arvinder Singh emphasized that the program’s primary goal is the holistic development of children.

“We want children to step out of the virtual world of gadgets. Our goal is to bring them back to the playground where they can enjoy the true essence of play. Sports do more than just build the body; they build character and team spirit,” Singh stated.

The initiative is designed specifically for children under the age of 14. Unlike traditional talent hunts, this program is non-competitive, focusing instead on participation, inclusion, and the sheer joy of being active. By providing a fun and interactive platform, Gujarat Titans are encouraging kids to explore various sports, not just cricket, to improve their physical and mental health.

The Five-City Roadmap: From Surendranagar to Ahmedabad

The third edition of Junior Titans is set to be more expansive, reaching deep into the heart of Gujarat to engage local communities. The program will travel to five key cities over the next month:

The journey begins in Surendranagar, where 21 schools have already registered for the opening leg. By taking the initiative to smaller districts like Morbi and Amreli, the franchise is ensuring that children outside the major metropolitan areas also get an opportunity to engage with the brand and its health-centric ethos.

Engaging Schools and Parents: A Community-Driven Approach

The Junior Titans initiative goes beyond the children themselves. Gujarat Titans are actively collaborating with schools and parents to create a sustainable “sports culture.” The program includes specialized sessions for parents to raise awareness about the risks of excessive screen time—such as obesity, eye strain, and social isolation.

• School Integration: GT is partnering with over 100 schools this season to organize sports workshops.
• Life Skills Training: Through inclusive games, children are taught vital life skills like resilience, perseverance, and camaraderie.
• Expert Coaching: Kids receive guidance from professional coaches and interact with GT-affiliated trainers to learn the basics of different sports.

Building a Legacy: 10,000+ Kids and Counting

Since its inception in 2024, the Junior Titans program has already engaged more than 10,000 children across 11 cities in Gujarat. Previous editions covered major hubs like Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, and Bhuj. The 2026 season aims to build on this foundation, making it “bigger and better” by introducing more regional diversity.

Colonel Arvinder Singh clarified that while they aren’t explicitly searching for the next Shubman Gill, the discipline learned on the field naturally paves the way for future success. “If someone eventually plays professional cricket, that’s a bonus, but the focus remains on getting them outdoors,” he added.

Conclusion: A Healthier Future for the Next Generation

Gujarat Titans’ Junior Titans campaign is a commendable effort to balance the scales in an increasingly digital world. By transforming their brand influence into a tool for social good, the franchise is setting a new benchmark for IPL teams. As the first event kicks off in Surendranagar this Saturday, the hope is that thousands of Gujarat’s children will rediscover the joy of sweat, play, and friendship on the ground.
