The collaboration involves the EPL, DSC organizers, and the All India Football Federation (AIFF) under-16 Junior League. The focus is on conducting a series of coach-development workshops and masterclasses aimed at improving the quality of coaching across the country.
- Workshops offering advanced training techniques based on EPL methodologies.
- Masterclasses led by experienced EPL coaches and football experts.
- Emphasis on tactical knowledge, player fitness, and comprehensive team management.
Objectives and Impact
This program is a part of the EPL’s larger strategy to deepen its involvement in Indian football by leveraging the growing enthusiasm for the sport. The DSC and AIFF under-16 Junior League will be instrumental in showcasing young football talent and nurturing grassroots development.
Rakesh Sharma, an AIFF coach, expressed strong support for the initiative, noting that learning from the EPL’s expertise will elevate the training standards and performance levels of young players in India.
Looking Ahead
The EPL’s coaching program highlights the increasing globalization of football knowledge and India’s expanding role in the sport’s development. By investing in youth leagues and coach education, the partnership aims to create a sustained positive impact on the country’s football ecosystem.
