Bhaichung Bhutia Football Schools<\/a> (BBFS) is inviting applications for its residential academy program spread across India for footballers aged between 9-18 years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

BBFS Residential Academy is a one of its kind boarding school program with excellence in football. The residential academies are spread across five regions in India – Delhi (Vedas International School), Maharashtra (Barnes School & Junior College), Meghalaya (Assam Rifles Public School), Karnataka (Maharishi Vidya Mandir), and Kerala (Peeves Public School). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With state-of-the-art academic and sporting facilities, BBFS Residential Academy provides a unique experience to budding players and propels the sporting ambition of each individual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Building the IITs of Indian Football<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The problem starts with grassroots-level sports. In India, millions of children take up sports in their early years. However, by their teenage years, there is a steep dropout rate. According to a PwC survey, more than half of the people digress due to a lack of proper coaching, curriculum, or infrastructure. These factors are coupled with India\u2019s uncurbed emphasis on academics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What the above survey points to is an absence of a countrywide sporting culture resulting in the lack of the right environment and necessary support systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So how do we develop culture? It is a complex question to answer and may take decades to take effect. What then could we do in the meantime to dramatically improve our sporting outcomes?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our hypothesis is that a residential campus model could substitute for the widespread sporting culture that our country lacks. It is much easier to simulate the right environment within a campus than across a whole district, state, or nation. Much like the IITs and IIMs, which created a culture of academic merit in the absence of an appropriate ecosystem elsewhere in the country, residential schools of sporting merit could help us achieve global excellence faster. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fuel your football dreams with a curriculum designed by the champions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The BBFS coaching methodology was designed by Football by Carlos Queiroz – an initiative by the Portuguese football great Carlos Queiroz (Former Head Coach of Real Madrid, and Assistant Coach at Manchester United when Cristiano Ronaldo was a part of the team) in 2010. Since then, with the latest advancements, the in-house coaches facilitate the training sessions of the young footballers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Every student-athlete participates in 30+ competitive matches in a season and gets the opportunity to play in state, national and international tournaments based on merit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, four of our residential academy players – Richie Kharbani, K Lalremmuana, Wanshwadame D, and Aryan Rathee were called up for the India U-17 national team training camp. On the other hand, the residential academy students became champions of inter-state school competition across four states and performed exceptionally in many reputed tournaments like the Subroto Cup, Hero U-17 Elite Youth Cup, U-18 Thane Football League, and the like. Here’s the list of the success stories<\/a> from 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
