About Youth Sports Leagues & Academies
Why We Do This
At D5 Sports, it's about more than who wins or loses. I care about building that spark in young athletes - the hunger to play, the guts to keep going, and the real journey of growing in the game.
How We Train Future Champions
- My academy is where kids get hands-on, professional youth coaching programs in both football and basketball.
- Coaches aren't just book-smart - our founder and head coach both have serious playing and coaching chops.
- If you're hungry to go pro, we don't just talk - we scout for real potential, promote our best as NextGen Champions, and organize exposure trips for young athletes to play against top competition.
Our Leagues: Not Just Matches
- The Junior Fives League (J5L) is the biggest junior football league Karnataka has seen, bringing together 450+ players from 23+ academies.
- We mix competition with social good - like #GoalsBeyondGoals where kids plant saplings, and the Needbase Tiebreakers Challenge to get gear for girls who can't afford it.
- Our basketball leagues for under 16 and U14 kids run with proper group stages, knockout rounds, and awards for not just winners but standout defenders, MVPs, and shooters.
What to Expect
- All our games are run by official referees - no funny business.
- Kids play at top venues in Bangalore, from MAHE to NPS.
- Health and safety? Sorted. We've tied up with medical and hydration partners so players are always looked after.
If your kid is serious about sport, and wants a bit more than just a weekend run-around, this is where you start.

My Story
We’re D5 Sports. Games, grit, and good times - that’s us. We love seeing underdogs rise, legends made, and teams cheering loud. Started out dreaming of big-league feels for everyone - not just pros. From boardroom warriors to young champs in our academies, we wanted everyone to get that rush. It’s about late goals, team huddles, and those epic smiles. Every event, we try to make it bigger, better, and more fun. We’re not just running sports - we’re building a tribe.
My Work
