English Premier League expands strategic partnership
The Premier League will deliver a series of high-impact coach-development workshops and masterclasses for participating coaches and support staff at the Dream Sports Championship and the AIFF under-16 Junior League. These sessions will focus on areas such as training methodology, match management, physical conditioning, psychology and leadership, as well as bringing global best practices to the Indian football academies’ ecosystem.
By working closely with coaches, academies and clubs across the country, DSF and the Premier League aim to support Indian football through workshops, mentorship and knowledge-exchange initiatives.
"We are excited to partner with the Premier League for the Dream Sports Championships. At Dream Sports Foundation, we believe that unlocking India’s footballing potential requires a strong focus on both player and coach development, something we have been doing through our Dream Again programming. This strategic partnership aims to focus on the development of coaches and support staff, and creating meaningful pathways for players to compete and learn at global standards,” Neel Shah, CEO, Dream Sports Foundation, said.
