New Delhi, Sep 27 (UNI) What started as an informal gathering of a few people trying to the organise a football tournament for little children has now bourgeoned into something much bigger in the heart of the City of Joy, in the form of the ‘Gostha Pal Championship Golden Baby League.’
Named after the first footballer to receive the Padma Shri Award, the Gostha Pal Championship under the aegis of AIFF’s Golden Baby Leagues, attempts to look beyond the realm of tinkle-toes and juggled footballs.
Samsul Alam, who is one of the operators of this league believes that the efforts to inculcate more children into the realm of the beautiful game has helped improve their lives.
