Aiming to provide youth of the Valley a space to showcase their talents, Jammu and Kashmir youth Aman Zargar who is an engineer by profession, has revived  ‘Kashmir Avengers’ football club after a gap of 12 years.

“Without a goal, life is like a game of football without a goalpost. I find no objective in life if there is no fitness, engagement, and smile on people’s faces. I feel satisfied when people smile, laugh, and shout their support for football, I feel that I have found my objective in their smiles and their laughs,” Aman, who is also among the co-founders of the football club,was quoted as saying by ANI.

Claiming that ‘Kashmir Avengers’ is one of the top J-K football clubs, he said that it has more than 90 per cent of locals play in the club adding that it comes under the category of Premier Division.

“It is satisfying to watch our own youngsters playing in the game even when we don’t know who will win. The support of people towards Kashmir Avengers is so high that the cheering somehow finds its way to the ears of our players in the stadium, influencing their morale, sportsmanship and suddenly one can see the trajectory as the ball hurtles toward the goalposts!” he was quoted as saying.

“We will continue to offer all players of any age and ability a personalized football education from the best coaches in the J-K and provide pathways for the players to excel,” Aman said.
