The handovers included five brand-new Nike and Puma soccer balls, two sets of training bibs, cones, and markers – all essential tools for honing the young players’ skills.
Singh said, “This contribution is more than just equipment, it’s about providing these children with the opportunity to engage in structured sports, keeping them focused and on the right path.”
Pillay said these resources will make a huge difference in their training sessions. “The children are thrilled, and it motivates them to continue their journey in soccer,” he said.
The academy, known for its community-driven approach, has been working tirelessly to give children from local schools exposure to soccer. “With soccer being a key outlet for physical activity and discipline, our efforts help shape positive futures for these young athletes,” said Singh.
The academy is open to children aged 5–16 and caters for boys and girls.
