Nationwide consultation on building India’s football philosophy to be held!

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) has announced a nationwide consultation to develop India’s first National Football Philosophy — a unified framework to align how football is played, taught, and developed across the country.

The initiative aims to address long-standing inconsistencies in talent identification and player development, establishing a clear progression from grassroots to the national teams. Once finalised, it will guide coach education, competition structures, and development programmes nationwide.

The AIFF has stressed that this must be a ground-up exercise, inviting contributions from coaches, players, clubs, academies, member associations, and fans. Participants will share views on six areas: vision and identity, game model, player profile, development pathways, coaching approach, and implementation.

Interested individuals and organisations may register by clicking here. A select group of contributors will be invited for deeper consultations.
