Clubs Must Have Women's Teams, It's Been Made Part of Licensing Criteria: Kushal Das

News 18  

The All India Football Federation has made it mandatory for clubs to have a women's team as part of the licensing criteria, said the sports body's general secretary Kushal Das. "Hopefully, like our youth development program, which started off slowly, then picked up the pace and is now doing quite well, the same thing will happen with women's football and more and more clubs will field teams in our national competition -- the Hero IWL," he added. Women's football in India has gathered momentum in recent times with the country set to host the FIFA U-17 World Cup next year followed by the AFC Asian Cup in 2022. I think the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup 2021 will help as will the AFC Women's Asian Cup 2022," Das said.
