Maharashtra Grassroot Leaders celebrated AFC Grassroots Day on 15th May 2014. Grassroots Day is a celebration of football. It focusses on getting kids of the age group (6-12) to come together and just have fun playing football.
Grassroots football targets boys and girls aged 6-12 years through school, community and club. The key concept of the programme is to bring together as many people as possible through football. The grassroots programme advocates exchanges and sharing human values and, of course, promotes the pleasure of practising our marvellous sport. For some people, grassroots football is a focus for recreational activities, while for others it is the organised practice of the sport, with training and matches, within a school or club framework.
