Football was a relatively foreign concept in the Mro community. However, the magic of football as a game is that it finds itself in the furthest nooks and corners of the world.

And just like that, the football magic reached Chimbuk, Bandarban, where it made a boy dream. His name was Prenchong Mro, currently a fourth-year student of Physical Education and Sports Science Department of Chittagong University, who was determined to introduce the sport to his community and inspire them to see its potential as a profession.

Recently, Prenchong finally inched closer to his dream, as he made it to Guinness Book of World Records for the most football (soccer) toe taps in one minute.

He started practicing for several records and finally made the attempt to break the record on April 24 last year. Guinness World Records approved the video in November and Prenchong got the official letter in this year's January.

When asked about what motivated him to set this record, Prenchong said, "In early 2022, the idea of Guinness World Record came to my mind. I saw the video of Kanak Karmakar, who held the record for the highest toe taps (197 times in 1 minute)."

"There was no footballer in my community. People from the Mro community knew very little about this sport. That hit me and I wanted to introduce football as a profession here," he added.

In 2021, Prenchong played for Brothers Union Club in the Chittagong Premier League and won the championship. He is also playing for the district and university teams.
