India Khelo Football (IKF) is a non-profit platform dedicated to democratizing football in India by connecting grassroots talent with professional opportunities and holistic support—empowering youth and communities through sport, education, and social change.

Introduction for Campaign Alignment
India Khelo Football believes every child deserves a real chance at chasing their football dreams, regardless of background, gender, or geography. As Asia’s largest football talent pipeline, IKF has pioneered open trials and community outreach to identify, nurture, and showcase rising players from over 100 Indian cities and villages.

IKF is not a club or academy, but a collaborative platform that enables players, coaches, and clubs to work together for meaningful impact.

The organization’s flagship “Field of Dream” project embodies this mission—offering well-structured football pathways, life skills training, gender inclusion, and education alongside athletic development.

By eliminating barriers and waiving trial fees for girls, IKF lays the foundation for gender equality and empowerment through sport.

IKF’s “Field of Dream” campaign for the Mumbai Marathon is an invitation to join a movement where football is the bridge to vital SDGs—quality education, health, gender equality, and community building. With strategic partners, a transparent career pipeline, and a vision to see India’s youth flourish on and off the field, IKF asks donors and runners to help turn dreams into reality, one child and one community at a time.
