On his maiden visit to a Delhi Dynamos Youth Football camp, ISL Grassroots Technical Director Piet Hubers was all praise for DDFC's extensive youth football programme.
Hubers was in the capital for two days to exclusively interact with budding footballers being coached by DDFC's team of dedicated grassroots coaches.
DDFC's grassroots programme was adjudged one of the best during last season of the Indian Super League, and this season has followed the same pattern.
Earlier today, Hubers visited the New Willingdon Camp, one of the four camps being run across the city through the summer by Delhi Dynamos FC. He interacted with 55 children between the age group 6 to 17, keenly watched them train, and imparted valuable advice.
Hubers' visit was special as he was invited by DDFC to be a special guest on the occasion of the concluding day of the DDFC youth football camp at New Willingdon. Hubers spent more than two hours interacting closely with all the children, and couldn't wipe the smile on his face throughout.
He said, "I always like when kids are playing football, guided by good coaches. I saw some really good players - they are having fun (and) that's the most important thing! It's very good that Delhi Dynamos FC is offering them this."
He concluded his visit by handing out certificates of appreciation to all the children while awarding the three best footballers in the camp.
