Competitive matches are the cornerstone of a player’s development. Every season, a student-athlete plays a minimum of 25+ competitive matches taking part in local, national and international tournaments.  

The developmental pathway in professional football is divided into three stages: Grassroots (5-11 years), Youth (12-17 years), Professional (18 - above). Within these stages, alongside right mentorship, there are multiple competitions that help student-athletes rise through the ranks and eventually attain a professional contract.   

The All India Football Federation, which is the governing body for football in India, launched Baby Leagues in 2018, a nation-wide project to provide initial competitive exposure for grassroots players. In the youth stage, the AIFF organizes Sub-Junior Nationals (U-14) and Junior Nationals (U-16 & U-19) across India.

At the professional level, the AIFF organizes Senior National competitions, which becomes the gateway for footballers to kickstart their professional journey. Alongside the AIFF organized competitions, there are numerous tournaments arranged by private and state bodies across all age-categories.

Bhaichung Bhutia Football Schools (BBFS) takes part in all competitions providing student-athletes the ideal platform to script their pathway into professional football while facilitating best training by seasoned coaches. BBFS also owns Garhwal Heroes Football Club (GHFC), a Delhi-based professional football team. Student-athletes who have the potential and perform in competitions get an opportunity to represent GHFC and are sent for trials in elite-teams through the BBFS scouting network across India and abroad.

After years of guidance and development, once the student-athlete turns 18, BBFS provides them scouting opportunities in elite teams or guides them for their career progress in sports related fields.

The beginner batch is for players having less exposure in football. For these players, our coaches emphasise on providing a personalised curriculum for optimal development. In the advanced batches, the coaches provide a curriculum improving the physical, mental, tactical, technical and social aspects.
