This collaboration marks a significant step in advancing women’s football in India.
In a significant move for women’s football, Karnataka-based Kemp FC and Tamil Nadu-based Sethu FC have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to enhance player development through a mutual player loan agreement.
The partnership, which officially launches tomorrow, seeks to address the challenge of limited playing time during shorter league seasons by enabling players from both clubs to gain valuable competitive experience across different leagues.
Key Features of the Partnership
Mutual Player Loans: Sethu FC players will join Kemp FC for the Karnataka Women’s League, while Kemp FC players will be loaned to Sethu FC for the Indian Women’s League (IWL). This ensures that players from both clubs maximize playing time and experience.
Increased Playing Opportunities: Players from both clubs will gain exposure to diverse match environments, further enhancing their skills and overall development.
Focused Player Growth: The collaboration creates a structured pathway for young talent, allowing them to benefit from consistent game time and exposure to varied coaching methods.
Shared Resources: Both clubs will pool resources, including coaching staff and training facilities, ensuring holistic development for their players.
Larger Talent Pool: This agreement creates a wider pool of highly developed players, benefiting both clubs and contributing to the broader growth of women’s football in India.
In the recently concluded KWL 2024, four players—Rivka Ramji, Priya Chettri, Mariyam Khatun, and Heena Khatun—were part of Kemp FC on loan from Sethu FC.
This initial collaboration has highlighted the potential benefits of the strategic partnership and its positive impact on India’s women’s football ecosystem. A few Kemp FC players are also expected to join Sethu FC for the upcoming IWL campaign, further strengthening the synergy between the two clubs.
