She Kicks x SIX5SIX: A snippet from what the Indian Goalkeeper said

It was a beautiful sunny day on the football turf, which is the perfect weather for football as the young girls trained in the background while Aditi talked about her career, She Kicks FA, and shared some life-changing advices that she received on her path to becoming one of the best players in Indian Football.

Having played multiple sports (Athletics, Karate, Basketball, and more) earlier, Aditi said that one advice that she remembers was from here coach Mr. Raman as he said "Do you want to be average at multiple sports or excel in one sport?"

"I'd love to play as a striker but I've realised that I don't like to run too much and that's probably why I stuck to being a goalkeeper," joked Aditi when asked what other position she would fancy herself playing if not a goalkeeper.
