JFC Youth Team U17 trials Day 1: A staggering 380 players attend the TFA trials

The first day of Jamshedpur FC’s Youth Team (TFA) U17 trials saw as many as 380 young footballers from around the country attend and attempt to impress the coaches at the Tata Football Academy Ground in Jamshedpur.

The trials are free of cost and are being held between 1-8 February 2023. The registration for the same was online this year, with as many as 2,713 candidates registering from across India.

A strict system of age and document verification was followed for the online process with only players born between 01.01.2006 and 31.12.2007 (dates inclusive) allowed to participate in trials.

A barcode scanner allowed TFA officials to instantly gauge whether a candidate’s registration between 17-21 January was legitimate and accepted or was rejected due to age or documentation concerns.
