High-performance sport is not powered by training alone. It's powered by what fuels the athlete before the match, sustains them during play, and helps them recover after the final point. The Delhi Pro Volleyball League proudly welcomes Dr. Sanjana Bardhan as the Official Nutrition & Diet Partner—bringing scientific, athlete-first nutrition planning to the heart of the competition.

- Proper hydration and electrolyte balance
- Lean strength without fatigue or heaviness
With Dr. Bardhan's expertise in sports nutrition, players receive structured dietary guidance tailored to the real demands of indoor volleyball.
