Player Development

We help underprivileged young footballers realize their potential by raising funds to grant them 100% training scholarships to avail them quality football education at BBFS. Over 100 talented scholars have been scouted and are given free training in Delhi/NCR, Mumbai, Chandigarh and Jammu.

The scholarship program covers majority of the cost involved in providing quality football training, exposure camps as well as supporting these players with the required medical facilities.

  • Regular Training

    We provide a world-class platform wherein talented young footballers can hone their talent under the right guidance. The scholars (selected under the IFF Scholarship Program) are from the EWS, and have been carefully selected based on their performance at the national level and their potential to become leading professionals and responsible citizens.

  • Travel Reimbursement

    Several of our scholars have to travel long distances to receive training under BBFS coaches at various training centers. IFF reimburses the travel expenses for such scholars to ensure that their development process is not compromised.

  • Exposure and Development Path

    We support our scholars and provide them with the opportunity to participate in various tournaments in India and abroad. We constantly provide them with the opportunity to present themselves for the trials held at National and State level.

Our Achievements

  • Six of these scholars are playing in the I-league, and more than 30 representing state teams and have been shortlisted to join the AIFF regional academies.
  • Anuj Kumar - one of the BBFS scholars – was a part of the National Squad (U16) which won the recently concluded SAFF Games 2013 in Nepal.
  • More than 65 representations at the national level by the scholars funded by Indian Football Foundation - details below
