The South Zone, which was launched last month, had a total of 40 teams and approximately 350 children participating.

Said FC Goa Technical Director Coach Derrick Pereira, “We believes that India has the potential to attain better rankings on an international level if our players start training at a young age. And that’s why the emphasis on developing young plyers at an early age. It’s important for young plyers to be able to play matches on a regular basis. The Little Gaurs League organised by the Forca Goa Foundation is doing a commendable job in this area”.

Matches are being conducted every week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays across the three zones. The league is sponsored by JUMPNET, a technology company which shares our vision of developing healthy, empowered and aware Goan youth.
