Fantasy Sports to make a stronger comeback as sports resume globally with empty stands

New Delhi, Jul 2 (UNI) Federation of Indian Fantasy Sports (FIFS), India's Fantasy Sports self-regulatory industry body, revealed that the Indian Fantasy Sports platforms witnessed participation from over 5 million Indian sports fans between April and June 2020.
In the same period, Fantasy Sports (FS) companies introduced new sports like baseball, handball and rugby, and hosted 1,000+ matches from around the world.
Due to the pandemic, major live sporting events were either postponed or cancelled to ensure the safety and well-being of the players, fans and the associated staff. While the Fantasy Sports industry was impacted due to these cancellations, they were able to bring some sporting action to Indian sports fans through the introduction of new sports and tournaments from places which were free of COVID-19.
