After obtaining a permission letter from the sports ministry, the Federation went on a recreation tour to Singapore, had innovated and propogated that the first Asian Throwball chamionship was held from february 22 to 25.

The Federation had created documents showing that certain individuals have attained gold medals in the tournament by deceiving the Centre and State Government for getting medical seats in MBBS, BDS courses under sports quota.
