The Tata Trusts UDream Football programme is a one-of-a-kind learning and development programme that offers talented young children a unique opportunity to pursue a career in football and gain recognition not only at home, but also on the global stage. The programme also lays equal emphasis on the academic development of young athletes and an opportunity to pursue higher studies at a German university or institution, helping them find the right balance between sports and education. The North Eastern Region of India has the maximum number of football players in the country. However, with the lack of quality grassroots programmes, growth of talent suffers owing to lack of opportunities for playing against quality teams. The absence of professionally trained football coaches in India also acts to stunt progress. Just as there is a need for talent development programs, there is an equal need for a program that aids the development of coaches, giving them opportunities to enhance their skills and exposure.
