All India Football Federation (AIFF) is one of the professionally coordinated and well-structured sports associations of the country which have been responsible for creating milestones. The governing body of Indian Football is presently initiating instrumental programs and courses which are aiding the sport to become even more professional and standardised. In order to refine the approach of the game and also in order to help it reach out to the mass, the federation has arranged series of Grassroots development programs and youth development courses which are propelling to create major awareness in the young generation.
Under the leadership and motivation of the AIFF President Praful Patel, the organisation has been able to restore the glory of the sport which has been so far overshadowed by the glitz of cricket. It is with the motive to make the sport even more attractive, AIFF in association with the IMG-Reliance and Star TV, had ventured in designed the Indian Super League (ISL). Inspired from the pattern of Indian Premier League (IPL), this tournament includes eight franchisee teams from different parts of the country owned by top celebrities, sports personalities and business giants. The tournament experienced its first kick off began on October 12, 2014. The league has been even more dazzling with the participation of the leading international players who have been leading world cup players of their time.
Praful Patel profile has been a remarkable factor as this is also helping the original series of the country I-League to get a new look. Patel has made it clear that the I-League will always remain the primary tournament of the country. He is also optimistic that many of the ISL clubs are showing interest in the I-League and it is expected that soon they will be taking up initiatives for the I-League. According to the President, the ISL may have created a craze among the football fans but it will always remain a kind of short term booster.
