Kargil Diwas tournament celebration
● Stepover Academy · Ghaziabad

Every school
deserves a team.

We turn Ghaziabad's government schools into football clubs — kits, crests, leagues, and a pathway from the schoolyard to the state trial. Follow a team for free, or back one with a few hundred rupees.

The Ledger

Kargil Diwas runs on adoption fees, not charity.

Every rupee below is buy-in from someone who wanted a stake in a team — shoes, jerseys, transport, medals. Here's exactly where we stand, a week out.

Moments

Tournament highlights.

Photos from every edition, all in one rotating wall.

Press

In the news.

Clippings and coverage from local media.

Follow or Back a Team

Two ways to be part of this.

Follow a team for free and get real updates from match day. Or back one with money, from ₹500 upward, and see exactly what it pays for. Either way, you pick the team.

FREE

Just follow

No cost, ever. You get match updates and standings, and you tell a 13-year-old someone outside their school is watching.

₹500

Kit Sponsor

Covers a jersey or a pair of boots for one player, or a matchday's transport for an established team.

₹1,500

Matchday Sponsor

₹5,000

For Organisations

A sports-for-development partnership, not a CSR line item.

We're building the Korean and Japanese school-sport model for Indian government schools — a replicable, cluster-based pipeline from the schoolyard to the state trial. Ghaziabad is the proof of concept. Brands who back it early get visibility inside a story that's only going to get bigger.
