NEW DELHI: IOS Sports & Entertainment, a leading Indian sports management group, on Thursday announced the signing of the Indian circuit and off-road motorcycle racer Aishwarya Pissay.
Last year, Pissay became the first and only Indian to win a world title in two-wheeler motor sports when she won a gold and a silver medal in the Women’s and Junior’s events respectively at the FIM Baja Women’s World Cup 2019.
The 24-year old Pissay is the latest entrant on a long list of elite athletes managed by IOS Sports, which includes boxers MC Mary Kom and Vijender Singh, track athletes Hima Das and Jinson Johnson, paddler Manika Batra, weightlifter Mirabai Chanu, captains of India’s men’s and women’s hockey teams Manpreet Singh and Rani Rampal respectively and more.
“I’m excited to be part of the finest and most reputed sports management group in the country. They have a proven record and I look forward to a great association with them,” Aishwarya Pissay said.
In her short career, the Bengaluru-based racer has had a meteoric rise to the top, as she has consecutively been winning the National Rally Championship and the National Road Racing Championship over the past four years.
‘Miss Pissay’ as she calls herself on social media, has also won the prestigious FMSCI Outstanding Women in Motor Sport Award for the last four years running.
On signing the motorcycle racer, Neerav Tomar, MD of IOS Sports and Entertainment said, “We would like to welcome Aishwarya Pissay to the IOS family. At a young age, she has proved her potential on the motorsports circuit. And we hope to serve her in the best possible way.”
