The
selected players will be availing a residential academy in Neyveli and Chennai
where they can pursue their studies as well as realise their professional
footballing ambitions, with the best talent from the Club getting a chance to
play for state, country and international clubs. The Scouting for players is scheduled to
begin on 10th May 2019 and conclude on 6th June 2019. Chennai, Coimbatore, Trichy, Tirunelveli,
Madurai and Neyveli will be hosting the initial screening with the final
selection scheduled at Neyveli for the 1st and 2nd June,
followed by Fitness and Medical Tests on 3rd, 4th and 6th
June with the Contract Signing with the Players on 8th and 9th
June.
Mr
Imran Khan also mentioned “The Indian football is on the rise, however, grass
root level training and facilities remain inadequate. Thamizhan F.C. seeks to
bridge this gap and nurture and motivate young talents who aspire to make a
career in football. Through the scouting program which has received tremendous
support, we are confident more than 1000 students will participate and we seek
to take 100 players across U-13, U-15 & U-18 and also players for the
senior women’s team”.

career, will go a long way in developing the talent, along the lines of talent
scouting and building in the EPL and other such premier Football Leagues. Actor Kasthuri and Shariq Hassan, guests of

help instilling professional football in South India and in Tamil Nadu in
