About Champions: Our 2024 Tournament Victory
Winning this tournament wasn't just about the 1-0 scoreline against Roots FC in the final. It was the result of three years of building our current squad chemistry, specifically focusing on our transition play. When Aayush David Koshy found the net in the 73rd minute, it validated every tactical drill we have been running at our SAI Kengeri sessions throughout the season.
Winning the 2024 Prasanna Kumar Memorial Tournament was a major milestone for our club. For 16 years, we have operated as BTM FC, the Red Lions, consistently fighting for our spot in the Bengaluru football scene. This victory represents more than just a trophy; it is proof that our pro-pathway system works.
The final match against a strong Roots FC side was the test we train for. It was tight, tactical, and physically demanding. Our preparation, involving rigorous strength and conditioning alongside video analysis, meant our boys were ready to grind out that 1-0 result in the final stages of the game.
Individual brilliance shone through, with Nakshatra Jain earning Player of the Tournament honors for his 6 goals and 2 assists. However, football is a team sport. Whether it is our U20 prospects or our senior KSFA A-Division squad members, the chemistry on display at the Bangalore Football Stadium was the result of consistent, year-round training.
We are already looking ahead. If you have seen these highlights and want to train with a club that prioritizes competitive experience, our doors are open. We run year-round elite coaching, host regular senior team trials, and provide a clear pathway for players ready to commit to the professional grind. Vega. Shaurya. Vijaya.
