Delhi Dynamos FC today announced the launch of the club's first academy in partnership with TDI International School, Sonepat.
The academy is scheduled to start from July 1, 2016.
Preceding this to build the atmosphere, the club would conduct a month-long summer camp from June 1.
The academy at TDI International school would tap into the immense sporting heritage and talent in Haryana.
Nestled in a sprawling 200 acre TDI City, the academy boasts of world class infrastructure catering to age groups between 6 and 17 years. The club would be introducing modern methods of football coaching including the best practices observed globally.
All players would be monitored using advanced player development tools resulting in an individualized training module under the guidance of Club Technical Directors with regular visits from senior team players to inspire and guide these players. There are plans to convert this academy into a residential set up in the coming years.
Speaking on the occasion, Prashant Agarwal, President Delhi Dynamos FC, said, "We are proud to launch our first academy in Sonepat in partnership with TDI International School as part of our campaign to develop the game in North India.
We will soon be launching multiple academies in North India with an elite academy in Greater Noida which would be up and running by August this year followed by our elite residential academy with world class facilities in Ekana, Lucknow later this year."
Raman Vijayan, technical director, Delhi Dynamos FC and former India national team player, said, "We have held around 20 clinics over the past year and the level of participation and enthusiasm has only been increasing. The recent trials for the Reliance Foundation Young Champs saw more than 350 kids.
