    Head Coach Ravi Punia Secures Medals Across All National Women’s Football Categories

    By IANS News September 03, 2025 • 18:36 PM View: 501
    Ravi Kumar Punia: Ravi Kumar Punia created history in Indian women’s football as a head coach by guiding teams to medals at the Sub-Junior, Junior, and Senior national championships. On Wednesday, he added to his record when Uttar Pradesh defeated Kerala 2-1 in the final of the Sub Junior Girls’ National Football Championship 2025-26 Tier 2 at Narainpur, Chhattisgarh.

    Both teams secured promotion to Tier 1 for the next edition.

    This result completed a rare record in Indian football. Punia had earlier led Dadra & Nagar Haveli to the Junior National Championship gold medal in 2021, with a 1-0 win over Bihar in the final. At the Senior level, he coached Haryana to two podium finishes -- silver in 2023, after a 2-0 loss to Manipur in the final, and bronze in 2024, after a 2-0 defeat to Odisha in the semifinals.
