Rotary Calcutta Metro City recently handed over the entire set of football kits, including fitness training kits, for the Nayagram Thana Balika Vidyapith Football team at Nayagram, Jhargram.
The equipment was donated by Vidyapeeth, a non-profit organization based in the United Kingdom.
The program featured handing over football equipment consisting of 30 footballs, 85 team jerseys, 36 hurdles, 36 discs, 84 marker cones and 12 fitness poles.
The girl’s tribal team, mostly first-generation learners, also played a friendly exhibition match on the occasion.
The girls and the school authority expressed happiness in receiving the football equipment, which is going to help them to practise and play better football and win more championships.
Rotary Calcutta Metro City has been supporting girls’ football for the past few years in rural Bengal.
Last year the club supported a similar team in Sandeshkhali, Sundarbans.
The club was represented by its members Subhojit Roy, Bandana Das, Shankar Das, Tilak Dasgupta and Club President Sunando Sen.
