The Course concluded with a Football Festival participated by 96 kids.<\/p>\n
The Participants of the Course organised the Festival themselves under the guidance of Instructor Scott O’Donell who\u2019s also AIFF\u2019s Director of Coaching besides being the Technical Director, Academies.<\/p>\n
The Festival lasted for 90 minutes and consisted of three small-sided Game Stations and three Technical Stations. The kids enjoyed playing the small-sided games and were at home during the Technical Station drills.\n<\/p>\n
Lavinho Rebello, Vice President, Goa Football Association, urged the Participants to implement the Principles and Philosophies of Grassroots which they learnt during the Course during their daily Training Sessions with the kids. Such acts, he stressed, would enhance a continous development of Goan and Indian football in the future.<\/p>\n
Scott O’Donell also thanked the Participants for their support. \u201cI was impressed by the quality and enthusiasm of the Participants. All are very passionate about Grassroots Programme and have understood they are capable of conducting Grassroots Programmes in Goa,\u201d he said. \u201cI also feel that there is no reason why each one of them can\u2019t organise a Festival by themselves,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The Participants were also awarded AIFF Grassroots Leaders Certificates by Gajanan Kerkar, Executive Committee Member, Goa Football Association.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
