One of the biggest football clubs in England, Wolverhampton have entered into a strategic partnership with Delhi-based Young Star Academy (YSA) to promote football in India.
"With the help of Wolves, we at Young Star Academy intend to revolutionize grassroots football. The aim is to bridge the technical expertise gap between India and Europe and through this maximize sports participation among children irrespective of gender or economic background. We plan to achieve our goal by having coaches from Wolves come to India to conduct training camps for children and coach education programs," Russell Jones, General Manager at Wolverhampton Wanderers FC who was here in India at the momentous occasion commented.
"We are really pleased to sign this partnership with young star academy. We've been very impressed with their work across multiple sports and are looking forward to working together to develop top coaches and young footballers. The project will start in Delhi but we have ambitions plans to expand the programme to multiple cities across India," he said.
