Our Programs
Community Outreach Program
Kickstart Foundation offers transformative football coaching programs for underprivileged youth, combining football training with life skills development and nutrition education. With free coaching, equipment, and power snacks, our 8 to 12-month program (5 days/week) helps aspiring young players from marginalized communities grow physically, emotionally, and socially, unlocking their full potential.
Kickstart Residential Program
Kickstart Foundation's Residential Program offers exceptional young footballers a comprehensive safe accommodation-oriented scholarship, covering all expenses within and beyond football. Selected players receive nutritious meals, structured schedules, and enrollment in reputable schools or colleges as they train while residing at our Bengluru campuses. The program ensures overall well-being, providing football kits, essentials, medical care, academic support, and strength conditioning training, empowering talented youth to thrive in football and beyond.

Selected players join the Residential Program, gaining access to expert coaching, strength and conditioning, physiotherapy, medical care, and elite-level competition opportunities with Kickstart FC. The foundation covers all expenses, including travel, accommodation, and nutrition, empowering talented youth to reach their full potential.
TESTIMONIALS
The Australian Consulate-General, Bengaluru, was proud to partner with Kickstart Foundation on the EmpowerHER program in July 2024 – supporting the next generation of young women footballers. Supporting women in sport has many benefits on and off the field: sport teaches discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. When we play, we learn to work together, support each other, and strive to achieve our best. We were especially pleased that the program combined on-field training with off-field programs, including in leadership, digital literacy and financial literacy – creating a legacy for all participants, not just those who keep playing football.
