To that extent, the Committee recommended that trials be held across the country, dividing the nation into five regions - North, South, East and North East combined, West, and Central and North combined.Two coaches will be assigned to each zone, with 30 players being identified from the respective regions, trials will be held in five centres. Thereafter, 18 players will be selected from the five zones and brought into camp in Bhubaneswar in June. After intensive trials and trial matches in Bhubaneshwar, the overall squad will be shortened, aiming to build the team for the main championship. The coaching staff for the team will be recommended by the Technical Committee shortly as per the-aiff.com.The Technical Committee also recommended a new Coach Education system, which would come into effect from July 1, 2023. The new Coach Education module will see the B, C, and D License modules teaching the student coaches about football at the junior or amateur levels, while the A and Pro License attendees will get more detailed training on professional coaching.The Blue Cubs, an elite grassroots programme to spread the beautiful game across the country, was launched earlier this month. The Committee recommended that certain modifications be made to the sizes of the playing fields and the composition of the teams for certain age groups, in order to better develop technical skills amongst the youth players.The Elite Blue Cubs that come through the Grassroots system will play in a 5v5 format, and then progress to the U-13 level, where they will get to play 7v7 football, with two halves of 25 minutes each. The format further increases the game to a 9v9 format for the U-15s, with the time being increased to 35 minutes a half. Finally, the youth players will get to play in 11v11 competitions at the U-17 level, with two halves of 40 minutes each.The Committee recommended the temporary disbanding of the India U-20 National Team, currently stationed in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, as it has no tournament to play soon. The Committee suggested the players should return to their respective clubs for now and should be called back on the eve of the next tournament.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
