Women's Football Club — Origin Story
The Journey of Legends De Sporting Women's Football Club
Not created inside big stadiums with financial backing or professional infrastructure. It was born on the streets.
Where it all began
A few young girls playing football in the streets of Koramangala with dreams bigger than their circumstances became the beginning of this journey.
Founder P. Jayaseelan, an ex-footballer, along with Co-Founders Dinakaran and J. Prasad, believed that football could become a tool to transform lives.
Even before the club officially started, Dinakaran was already training girls from BBMP Government Girls School, Austin Town — supporting young girls who had talent but very limited opportunities.
The mission
"Not simply to build a football team — but to empower girls through football."
Many of these girls came from underprivileged families. Some could not afford football boots. Some struggled for proper nutrition. Some were afraid to step outside their homes and pursue sports because of fear, financial pressure, or social challenges.
But they had passion.
The struggle
Grounds were closed. Training stopped. Dreams became uncertain. But the spirit of these girls never stopped.
In 2021 and 2022, training restarted again at NGV Ground and Austin Town Nandan Ground with only a few determined girls who refused to give up on their dreams.
The club started identifying girls from Rajendra Nagar near Koramangala, opposite the Passport Office, along with girls from government schools and nearby local communities.
Every girl carried a different struggle. Yet every evening they returned to the ground with hope.
"The dream was always stronger than the struggle."

The turning point
A women's football tournament in Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu. With only 10 girls, very little experience, and almost no financial support, the team travelled to compete. Nobody expected what would happen next.
"That tournament gave belief to the players and opened the doors to bigger dreams."

Support the movement
Many girls still silently struggle to step outside their homes because of fear, financial challenges, or lack of support. We want to change that.
"Sometimes one jersey, one football boot, one meal, one ground session, or one helping hand can keep a girl's dream alive."
And every dream deserves a chance.
