Featured image for 'Kamaoge Kaise? Ghar Kaise Chalaoge?': Answering Every Indian Sports Parent's Honest Question (2026)

When KIBI Sports founder Sagar Rai told his father — who had himself joined the paramilitary forces through the sports quota — that he wanted to build a life around sport, his father asked two questions that every Indian athlete hears at the dinner table: 'Kamaoge kaise? Ghar kaise chalaoge?' Sport in India has always given respect; rarely a predictable livelihood.

KIBI Sports is a sports business from India with two legs: sports equipment from 257+ brand partners sold through our own ecommerce and international B2B exports, and a sports platform used by athletes, academies and institutions.

How KIBI Turns Sporting Effort into Verifiable Opportunity

  1. A Sporting Record That Follows You Out of the Gate (/athletes): Across 90,000+ athletes verified through sports organisations and 100+ institutions, tournament medals and stats live on a permanent digital passport rather than in a shoebox.
  2. Sponsorships Beyond the Top 10 Cricketers (/matchmaker & /athletes/sponsorships): KIBI's 3-Stage AI Brand Matchmaker connects Nano, Micro, Mid, Macro, and Mega athletes across 20+ sports with 257+ brand partners (WhatsApp +91 73493 07007).
  3. Sustainable Livelihoods for Coaches & Specialists (/pro-services): Former and active athletes who coach or practice sports physiotherapy earn through Two-OTP session protection bookings (85% net provider payout / 15% platform commission).

Frequently asked questions

After competing at the national level across five sports while growing up in a paramilitary family, Sagar Rai's father asked him the honest question every Indian parent asks: 'Kamaoge kaise? Ghar kaise chalaoge?' (How will you earn? How will you run a household?). KIBI Sports was registered on 16 September 2020 to build the digital and commercial rails that help athletes and coaches earn sustainably.
