Torch bearers of Old City football
It goes without saying that for all the cold-shouldering by the Telangana Football Association (TFA), Hyderabad Globe Football Club (HGFC) continues to be in the forefront of promotion of the sport in the Od City, much like what Shastri Soccer Club (SSC) has deen doing at Trimulgherry Village Ground, all these years.

According to AIFF licensed chief coach, Syed Sadi, a former footballer, his team consists of passionate coaches like MA Salam, Habib Obaid, MAQayyum, Almdar and Digamber Rao. The club has an all-year training in that 25-30 of the most promising summer trainees will be absorbed into the professionally-manned Hyderabad Globe Football Academy that also operates at Khurshidjah Playground.
