The 64th edition of the Subroto Cup International Football Tournament is set to commence on August 19, with matches taking place in both New Delhi NCR and Bengaluru. This prestigious tournament, named after the late Air Marshal Subroto Mukerjee, has been a platform for young football talent since its inception in 1960.
The Junior Girls (Under 17) category will kick off the tournament in New Delhi NCR on August 19, followed by the matches in Bengaluru for the Sub-Junior Boys (Under 15) category from September 2. The final phase of the tournament, the Junior Boys (Under 17) category, will begin on September 16 in New Delhi NCR.
The tournament will feature 106 teams competing in three categories: Junior Boys, Junior Girls, and Sub-Junior Boys. These teams will represent States, Union Territories, educational bodies of India, and four foreign countries.
The matches in New Delhi will be played at the Ambedkar Stadium, Tejas Football Ground, Subroto Park Football Ground, and Pinto Park Football Ground. In Bengaluru, the matches will be played at the Air Force School, Jalahalli, the Air Force School, Yelahalla, and the HQ Training Command Football Ground.

As part of the tournament, seven players will be selected from the scouting round for advanced football training in Germany as part of the Indian Tiger & Tigresses campaign. An age determination test will also be conducted for the Sub-Junior Boys category in Bengaluru to ensure fair play.
