Despite his excellent season, Kashyap, whose contract ends in May, is yet to ink an extension with Wahingdoh. But the former India international is not short of options. “I will see if I can agree an extension with Wahingdoh. But I-League is not the only option, now that we have the Indian Super League. I am definitely interested in working with an ISL franchise. We will have to wait and see how things work out.”
Maybe the guys are gonna select some players or something for the final Academy in Mumbai. And maybe other will form Centers of Excellence as said by Chennaiyin FC.
It does but who cares right now? If rumors are to be believe then they will eventually set up their academies, in fact, they will be required to soon before having a main academy in Mumbai!
Also, this is not the first time the ISL teams have done festivals... they've been going on since the beginning of the year.
I love how the part you selected makes the ISL look more bad than it is.
"Interestingly, coaches like former India player C V Seena are only happy to stretch themselves. “The more, the better,” said Seena, who is imparting football lessons to a day-by-day growing group of youngsters at the K Ambujakshan Memorial Training Centre’s summer camp in Maradu.“Of the 200-odd trainees I have for this summer, there are a few who come as far as from Ezhupunna and Paravoor. For the two-hour camp from 7 to 9 every morning, they travel twice as much time daily,” Seena said.
According to K Ravindran, coach at the Sacred Hearts Football Academy in Thevara, the Indian Super League has renewed the interest for football among the youngsters last year and is possibly the reason that draws a higher number of youngsters to football camps.
“We have no specific summer programme at our academy, but on account of the increase in number of children seeking provisional coaching during the summer vacation, we have opened slots in the regular programme,” Ravindran said.
The FF Academy in Eloor had to rope in two pair of specialised hands to deal with the number of students who have come forward to join the summer camp. “The number is a bit overwhelming and it took us by surprise because the interest was never this high like it is this time,” said Walter Antony, coach and one of the founding members of the academy.
However, neither the Kerala Football Association nor the Ernakulam District Football Association has bothered to chart out any summer coaching programme, despite the existence of a very noticeable wave of football enthusiasm whipped up by the Indian Super League."
ISL always and will be the crown in indian football calendar just like IPL is. no matter what ppl say I-league has failed in many counts. i bet when season 2 comes all those who think its a sham are gonna be closet ISL fans. well see ya at the nearest stadium and television set.
