YKK is back in India for the third time for its regional Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, the YKK Asia Group Kids Football Clinic (AFKC). Jointly organised by YKK Holdings Asia Pte Ltd (YHA) and YKK India Pvt Ltd, in partnership with the Real Madrid Foundation (RMF), this biannual event aims to use the beautiful game of football to provide underprivileged children in the region this unique experience of a lifetime.
The clinic, which was held over three days from November 10 to November 12, witnessed 280 local children and 30 local coaches train with professional coaches from Real Madrid Foundation at the FSV Arena in Bangalore.
The children were selected from the Surabhi Foundation Trust, Sumangali Seva Ashrama, Need Base India and Kasturi Trust. Coaches from the Real Madrid Foundation will impart their world-class training techniques and methods to the local coaches. This formula will be replicated with the participating children, who will then have a fruitful time in an interactive training session with them.
