The Committee considered the request and after due deliberation, the Committee decided to place the issue further to the Emergency Committee who will take the final decision on a later date. The Committee further discussed on the scheduling of the I-League and they decided that the eleventh edition of I-League will commence in the last week of October 2018.

On basis of Shivajians’ plea, AIFF will go through with an Academy Accreditation inspection. As per the star-rating, they’ll be allowed to take part in the youth leagues next season. AIFF is in a process to formulate a professional as well as an amateur player contract template which is to be circulated amongst the clubs. The same would be enforced in the next edition of the league.
