Great Motivation To Have Your Parents Around To Watch You Play In The World Cup- Aniket Jadhav

The AIFF has arranged for the players' parents to watch them play in the FIFA U-17 Woerld Cup.
With five more days left for the FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017 to kick-off, Indian U-17 World Cup team players on Sunday (October 1, 2017) thanked All India Football Federation for arranging all logistical arrangements for their parents to watch them play live at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi.
Captain Amarjit Singh sounded ecstatic saying: “On behalf of the Team I can say that the AIFF has already planned to get our families to Delhi and host them so that they can watch our games,” only to add: “Even during the AFC U-16 Championship in Goa (in September 2015), the AIFF had ensured that our parents were present during the matches and that made the occasion all the more memorable for us.”
“Right from our first day at the AIFF Academy in Goa, the AIFF has taken exceptional care of us and Praful-sir (Mr. Praful Patel, President, AIFF) and Kushal-sir (Mr. Kushal Das, General Secretary, AIFF) have told us about our secured future plan which we are very comfortable with. We will give our best on the field to make the Nation proud,” he further stated.
