In a landmark event that’s set to usher in a new era of sports-integrated living for India, renowned real estate developer Yugen Infra unveiled two pioneering projects at its flagship township, Yugen Golf City, conveniently located near Goa’s MOPA International Airport.
The launch, hosted at The Lalit in New Delhi, welcomed Gary Kirsten – legendary South African cricketer and India’s 2011 World Cup-winning coach – who was officially announced as Yugen Infra’s strategic partner for the township’s cutting-edge Cricket Villa project and dual-path residential school. Kirsten is joined by Russel Symcox of GK Investments, both of whom will assist in a strategic advisory capacity.
This partnership will see Kirsten and Yugen Infra co-developing 30 exclusive Cricket-Front Villas, which are set to embody India’s unparalleled passion for sports, while offering a lifestyle that is unmatched in luxury.
“Partnering with Gary Kirsten is more than a business move; it’s a celebration of India’s cricketing soul. These villas symbolise a dream, where the spirit of the game lives in every breath and breeze,” commented Sheeshram Yadav, Managing Director of Yugen Infra.
The second project unveiled on the evening was the True North International School, an Asia-first residential institution that aims to educate future leaders through a blend of world-class education and elite-level sports training.
Kirsten said he’s excited to be part of this groundbreaking development: “We are inspired by strong leadership that prioritises quality education and high-performance sport, which is why we’re partnering on this incredible development. This is a really impactful collaboration. We’re excited to be a part of something that’s set to have such a positive impact.”
