The second tier of Indian professional football will return after a prolonged hiatus.
The 2024-25 season of the I-League is less than a month away, as the action kicks off on November 22, 2024. It’s a double-header on day one of the I-League, as Sreenidi Deccan FC take on Gokulam Kerala FC at the Deccan Arena in Hyderabad at 4.30 pm IST, while Inter Kashi host SC Bengaluru at the Naihati Bankimanjali Stadium in Naihati, at 7 pm.
The 12-team league will be played through December, January, February, and March, ending on April 6, 2025. Sporting Club Bengaluru and Dempo SC are the two new entrants into the league after finishing as champions and runners-ups of I-League 2023-24.
AIFF (All India Football Federation) Secretary-General Mr. Anilkumar said, “Today we had a meeting with the I-League owners, and it went off well. All the clubs agreed to the proposals which we have floated to invite the potential sponsors on board and the initiative to bring the telecasting partners and broadcasting team on board for all the I-league matches, including the IWL (Indian Women’s League) and other elite group of competitions in AIFF.”
“They expressed their gratitude to AIFF saying it is a nice initiative, which is a welcome response from the I-League clubs. Hopefully, we will be able to complete this process by the second week of November as the first match is on 22nd November. That is what we have decided and a couple of points were raised by the I-League clubs, which are being considered by the AIFF. I am confident, we will have a wonderful season ahead,” the AIFF Secretary-General said.
