In a groundbreaking move, India Khelo Football (IKF), a pioneering non-profit initiative, launched its TYGER-IKF Season 5 trials at the Sesa Academy Ground in Goa. This ambitious project aims to cover over 125 cities across India and extend its reach to five neighboring countries, providing a platform for Indian expatriates to showcase their talent.
IKF is poised to transform the Indian football landscape by offering a unique platform for democratizing football scouting across the nation.

The inaugural event in Goa saw enthusiastic participation from over 200 young footballers, highlighting the region’s vibrant football culture. The energy and commitment on display were further reinforced by the local community, including parents and key stakeholders, who expressed excitement and requested that IKF extend its trials to South Goa to tap into talent from across the state.
