From growing up in a family that encouraged her to pursue sport to becoming one of India’s leading long jumpers, Reliance Foundation Sports Athlete Ancy Sojan’s journey has been defined by determination, perseverance and the belief to keep pushing forward. With sport running in the family, Ancy found the freedom to choose her own path and the support to pursue it. Her journey has taken her from humble beginnings to representing India on the international stage, overcoming challenges and setbacks along the way. After almost stepping away from the sport, Ancy found her way back with renewed belief. Since then, she has continued to raise the bar, producing a 6.88m jump and establishing herself among India’s top long jumpers. Now, with the Asian Games 2026 ahead, Ancy is ready to take her next leap. With the Asian Games record of 6.91m in her sights, she is looking to push beyond her best and create a new chapter in her journey. Watch Ancy Sojan’s story as she prepares for the #AsianGames2026
