Hindustan Zinc to promote football at the grass root level

Hindustan Zinc on Friday announced its plans to provide support at the grass root level for promotion of football.

With the belief that timely intervention of technology and data-driven analysis can help grassroots football in the country, Zinc Football’s initiative will come up with a full-fledged residential academy at Zawar, Udaipur with world-class facilities and the country’s first ever ‘technology-hinged football training’ – the unique F-Cube technology.

Zinc Football will also have an outreach programme to impart football coaching to over 2000 boys and girls by fully skilled football trainers through 64 community football centres - Zinc Football Schools, across Rajasthan.

The academy, which features a fully-equipped residential hostel, has identified its first batch of 30 extremely talented young boys, under the age group of 14 years.
