    AIFF Announce USD 50,000 Reward For WNT Following Historic Asian Cup Qualification

    By IANS News July 06, 2025 • 20:36 PM View: 426
    The All India Football Federation: The All India Football Federation (AIFF) have announced a reward of USD 50,000 for the Senior Indian Women’s National Team (WNT) following their outstanding performance in the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers held in Thailand.

    The Blue Tigresses delivered a flawless campaign — winning all four matches in convincing fashion. India recorded emphatic victories over Mongolia (13-0), Timor-Leste (4-0), and Iraq (5-0), before capping off the group stage with a crucial 2-1 win against higher-ranked hosts Thailand.

    In recent years, the AIFF, in collaboration with the Sports Authority of India (SAI), has undertaken several initiatives to strengthen the grassroots and youth structures in women’s football. One such initiative is the ASMITA Women’s Football Leagues, which witnessed the successful conduct of 155 leagues across the country from 2023 to 2025 at the U13, U15, and U17 levels. The 2023–24 edition saw participation from 6,305 junior players, a number that rose to 8,658 in 2024–25.
