A year of competitive junior sport can cost anywhere from one lakh rupees for badminton to nearly three lakhs for tennis—coaching, equipment, travel, it adds up quickly. But the obvious answer is the money; the real cost I see is the quiet anxiety in a father's eyes when the *kharcha* for new kit comes, and his own *chai* becomes thinner. In my academy, I've adjusted fees more times than I can count, because the calculations are never just of rupees, but of dignity.
