Started from a simple idea: give kids a real shot at football, not just drills, but life stuff too. Our centres are popping up in Vashi, Airoli, Thane, Mulund, Bhandup. Love seeing the LTPFS crew grow - coaches, parents, even dads joining for a Father’s Day kickabout. Best part? Watching kids like Enos and Reagan go from our sessions to actual state leagues. That’s what gets us buzzing. ### My work - **Football Coaching for Kids (5-16)**: We train boys and girls, including special goalkeeper training Mumbai batches, at all our centres. - **Certified Coaching Team**: Our coaches are AIFF & AFC certified, focusing on discipline and creativity in every session. - **Competitive Match Experience**: Kids play 30-40 matches a year in grassroots football development leagues like MFA & TFA. - **Beyond Football**: We do academy tours, team bonding trips, and regular parent meets to keep everyone in the loop. - **Pathway to Pro**: Many players move up to district teams and beyond, showing our pathway actually works.
