About us

The ISV Football Academy is committed to nurturing young talent and creating opportunities for girls, particularly those from rural and economically disadvantaged backgrounds, to excel in football. We believe in harnessing the power of sports as a transformative tool to empower women, promote gender equality, and foster community development.
Founded in 1991, the ISV Football Academy is an initiative of the ISV Club, based in Chalakudy, Kerala. Over the years, ISV has evolved from a modest library and club into a pioneering institution in grassroots football training for girls. Our academy is dedicated to providing high-quality training opportunities year-round, ensuring that young female athletes receive the support and resources they need to thrive in the sport.
