The removed teams failed to qualify for a Skeletal Age Estimation Test.
Three teams were disqualified from the 63rd Subroto Cup Sub-Junior Boys International Football Tournament which got underway today in Bengaluru due to fielding overage players. An official announcement of this effect was made by the Subroto Mukerjee Sports Education Society, under the aegis of the Air Force Sports Control Board. They also further stated that the reports of three other teams are awaited which will be received tomorrow and a decision will be made based on those results.
Nazareth Model High School, Dima Hasao, Assam; Nehru Public School, Jamuai, Bihar and Ultou Govt. Model High School, Bishnupur, Manipur were the teams disqualified from the tournament. The reports of teams from Mizoram, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra are awaited.
A Skeletal Age Estimation Test was conducted as per the regulations of the tournament and the criteria set by the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and the above mentioned teams were found out to field more than four players who were above the cut-off age which led to the disqualification of the teams.
The matches played on Day 1 by the above-mentioned teams were declared null and void. In the last edition, 16 teams were disqualified from the tournament for fielding overage players and the tournament is under the vigil of a strict disciplinary committee. Thankfully none of the teams that have played their matches till today have been eliminated due to this discrepancy.
Manikpara Vivekananda Vidyapith from West Bengal has inflicted the heaviest loss of the tournament so far as they thumped Sainik School of Haryana 7-0. Meghalaya’s Nongiri Presbyterian Secondary School is not far behind racking up six goals against Sri Lanka Schools Football Association as the full-time score came to 6-0. All except one game was a draw as Goa’s Perpetual Succour Convent High School were locked in a stalemate with St. Xavier’s High School, Jharkhand.
