Palava, the City of Opportunity witnessed a remarkable Sports Camp from April to June this summer. More than 250 children participated in the Camp which included Football, Swimming, Tennis and Aerobics. Conceived and organized by Palava City Management Association (PCMA), the aim was to cultivate a culture of sports, fitness and healthy living. This is in keeping with Palava’s commitment towards a better quality lifestyle and the vision for a broad spectrum of sports to be accessible to all, not only through high quality infrastructure but also high quality, structured training, enabling people to maximise their potential.
Experienced professionals undertook the training to ensure that the young players aged 5 to 17 years would be nurtured to reach their full potential. With the Football World Cup 2014 fever heating up, football enthusiasts had a very unique opportunity - the chance to learn from the big league professionals. The open-to-all football training camp was conducted by Arsenal Soccer Schools, a world-class football training academy set up by Arsenal FC, one of the most successful English Premier League soccer teams.
Led by Garry Guyan, a UEFA certified coach, every coach at the camp had an Arsenal and UEFA certification. Speaking on the success of the camp, Garry
Guyan said: “Kids in Mumbai have tremendous enthusiasm for football and now at Palava, they also have a truly world-class football facility where they can hone their skills and achieve excellence”.
Shaishav Dharia, Development Director, Palava said, “These opportunities which include not just access to a wide range of sports facilities but also high quality training are truly exceptional as they are very hard to come by in Mumbai”.
Through personalized training, football coaching at Palava city will help develop young players’ technical skills and passion for the game to ensure they become the best players they possibly can. With this initiative, PCMA facilitated yet another way of making great opportunities available to Palava’s citizens for a rich and varied life.
