I would like to wish the teams the best of luck and encourage the fans to turn out in huge numbers to watch the top-quality football that will unfold.”

In partnership with AIFF, the capital city of Bhubaneswar is also the base of the Indian U16 and U19 teams, frequently hosting camps and training sessions at the state-of-the-art infrastructure.

The interest in football in the state continues to grow as the state-partnered Odisha FC that is based out of the Kalinga Sports Complex recently brought home the coveted Super Cup.
