IKF 360 – The Blueprint to a Sporting Nation

A New Way to Think About Sports in India

For decades, sports—especially football—have been seen in India as an uncertain gamble. Less than 1% of players make it to the professional level, leaving behind a majority of kids and parents unsure of what’s next.

IKF 360 is rewriting this narrative

We envision football not just as a game, but as a gateway—to leadership, discipline, career opportunity, and social change. This is our movement to build a sports-positive, future-ready India.

Our Vision

To redefine how India views football and sport—as structured, inclusive, and purposeful. IKF 360 aims to turn football into a viable, respected pathway for any child, no matter their background.

Our Mission

  • Empower every football-loving child with the tools to thrive—on and off the pitch.
  • Involve parents from day one through structured goal-setting and personalized roadmaps.
  • Build a verified national network of coaches, tutors, and wellness experts.
  • Create career transitions for players into coaching, analytics, sports medicine, and more.

Disclaimer

India Khelo Football (IKF) is NOT an agent, intermediary, club, or football academy. IKF is a neutral platform that connects all dots of the football ecosystem.

At IKF, we do not charge any fee to clubs for accessing players, nor do we charge players for being scouted or connected to a club — apart from the one-time registration fee.

Players pay a single registration fee of
₹295 (₹250 + ₹45 GST)
applicable only for the city round. Players from economically weaker backgrounds pay nothing, and girls participate absolutely free.

Beyond the city round, there are no charges at all — zonal rounds and the national finals are completely free for everyone.
