GANGTOK: The Sikkim Football Association takes immense pleasure in bringing to the notice of all stakeholders and well-wishers, following the performances of the women's team in the 2023-24 Hero National Football Championship. The team has qualified for the upcoming 38th National Games, which will take place in Haldwani, Uttarakhand.
With the determination and commitment of the young women, who have displayed the sheer grit and desire exemplified by the winning mentality, these women have done what no other footballer in Sikkim has been able to do, which is to be in contention to be called "National Level Footballers.".
People often mistakenly believe that individuals competing in the National Football Championships, regardless of their gender or age, are known as National Level Footballers. However, it is a qualifying tournament, and a veil never before pierced by any team in Sikkim's footballing history.
The Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Prem Singh Tamang Goley and Hon’ble Madam Smt. Krishna Kumari Rai have been appreciated for their unwavering support and encouragement of sports and the development of football in Sikkim. Each person on the football team has been honored greatly for making this dream come true; the young women of the nation have been encouraged and wished success for their future.
