Sehwag Academy

What Sehwag Academy does

Sehwag Academy, formally Sehwag Cricket Academy, is a privately-held Indian cricket coaching business founded in 2011 by former international cricketer Virender Sehwag. The company delivers structured cricket training to children aged 6 to 18 across five or more physical centers, anchored by a flagship 23-acre eco-friendly campus in Jhajjar, Haryana, with additional locations across Delhi/NCR and other Indian cities. Its service portfolio is built on a 'Four Pillars' framework: a professionally-designed curriculum using cricket cards, encapsulated modules, and daily match analytics; a multi-center network; competitive tournaments including the proprietary Junior Pitch weekend T20 league for under-14 players; and international exposure tours to destinations such as South Africa and England. Supplementary products include an annual 10-day residential summer camp at the Jhajjar campus and a girls' cricket program offered at a 50% fee discount.

The business operates on a B2C subscription model. Primary revenue comes from monthly coaching fees paid in advance by parents before the 10th of each month, with a Rs.50 per day late fee, complemented by one-time registration fees and seasonal camp fees (minimum Rs.20,000 per candidate for the 10-day residential camp). Go-to-market is community-led and brand-anchored, relying on the founder's name recognition, word-of-mouth through existing parent networks, tournaments, social media, and a basic website rather than paid acquisition. The company is associated with Hind Cricket Club, which is affiliated to the Delhi & District Cricket Association, and has an additional tie-up with a local Delhi cricket club to provide students with formal competitive match exposure. Reported headcount is six, indicating a lean central team that likely contracts coaching talent per session across its network of centers.
