The FIFA BAN AIFF

-


As we all know from recent news the highest governing body of football in the world which is FIFA, suspended AIFF which brought in a tumultuous few days, because of the flagrant violation of the FIFA statutes.

Even though the ban might last only for a short period, its repercussions for India are huge.



It has given a fair warning to take a step back and take a look at the current system. The implications of the ban were as follows :

1. No U17 Women's World Cup
2. National teams and clubs banned from international competition
3. No FIFA and/or AFC development programs, courses, or training

The tension escalated when it came out that India could also lose out on massive FIFA grants which have been used for grassroots development in the country. 

“It is being learned that FIFA has reportedly sanctioned grants to the tune of USD 3 million in the last three years. This money is used by AIFF for the development of grassroots football in the country. If the ban persists, annually, the AIFF stands to lose USD 500,000 in grants.”

We know this is an unfortunate turn of events but at the same time, It can be used as an opportunity to rejigger our system. I think it's a great opportunity that can help our system to be better, but for this to happen all the stakeholders need to unite and work on it. Now that we have an understanding of where we need to be, I hope we put more effort into becoming organized and more functional.

When a Brand Understands Your Heart, Not Just Your Wallet

Chewy is a powerful example of how a company can turn customer experience into an emotional connection that builds lifelong loyalty. They don't just sell pet food; they become a trusted partner in the journey of pet ownership. When you sign up for Chewy, your dog’s food is delivered automatically each month.                                                                 But when the heartbreaking day comes and a beloved dog passes away, cancelling that subscription is often the last thing on an owner's mind. When you finally do reach out, Chewy not only refunds the last shipment, because health codes prevent returns, but thoughtfully encourages you to donate the food to another pet in need. A few days later, without being asked, they send you flowers and a condolence card. A small act, costing maybe $...

What is “The Region-Beta Paradox“?

So I recently heard about the idea of the region-beta paradox, although a notion it’s a concept that can have significant implications for our lives.  Basically, the beta paradox suggests that sometimes worse situations can actually be better than better situations because they can give people the drive and inspiration to make changes for the better.  To demonstrate this concept, take the example of traveling a mile. If you were to walk a mile, it might take you a certain amount of time. But if you were to walk more than a mile you might choose to drive instead. Paradoxically, you might actually reach your destination faster by traveling two miles than you would by traveling one mile. This idea can also be applied to our personal and business lives. For instance, you might not feel driven to hunt for a better opportunity if you're stuck in a "passable" work or if you're in a relationship that's "not that bad," you might not feel the urgency to make chang...

Taking a Professional Break to Explore the World of Art: A Journey of Self-Discovery and Creativity

I remember as a kid, my mom and dad used to ask me if I wanted to learn classical singing or anything creative, and I always used to have a one-word answer which was a straight NO. I never thought that I would love art so blindly until 2020 when Covid hit and it just took a 360-degree turn in my life. I was never exposed to art that much until I moved to Bangalore, where I stayed with my dad's brother. My dad loved art, but I never had the patience to watch any art form with him. I always used to beg him to leave when a program started, and not being able to be patient enough to sit for 10 minutes to watch a 3-hour Kathakali program is where I am today. It had a deep impact on me, and I felt like it had the key to my other side of the world, which I have never explored. I used to see my sister dance every day, and I used to hate it. The hate slowly started turning into something that I really enjoy, and being curious I wanted to know more about its history and what it meant to be. ...
