Team
City : Pune

Pune Football Club also known as Pune FC is an Indian Football Club from Pune in Maharashtra, India. The club, established in 2007, has gained promotion to the First Division of the The Indian Football League for the 2009-10 season.

Pune FC is one of the new generation of Indian Football clubs which are being promoted by different corporate groups. The Ashok Piramal Group, which has diverse business interests, established Pune FC in August 2007. The club was named after the city of its origin in keeping with the tradition of many international football clubs which are highly successful in drawing the crowds. Stewart Hall was the first Head Coach of Pune FC. The Current manager for the 2009/10 season is Derrick Pereira.

The Logo of the club is a shield with a Ghorpad (Monitor Lizard) engulfing a football. During the Battle of Sinhagad, Chhatrapati Shivaji's general, Tanaji Malusare, used Yeshwanti (Shivaji's pet ghorpad) to scale the steep walls of Sinhagad Fort. Similarly, the ghorpad on the logo is meant to serve as an inspiration to the club, to overcome all obstacles and be successful in India and Asia. The colours used in the logo are red and gold. The red symbolises aggression, danger and passion and the gold symbolises success and victory.

How many of you know local heroes? Men and women who have represented their sport at national or state or even inter city level. Interested few know their achievements, but hardly anybody knows them, their stories, their sacrifices and their moments of glory.We believe that their stories need to be told. Their talent needs to be showcased. We intend to provide a platform for all such budding sportsmen/women.

TIS Reviews

hey guys, this is really a superb initiative in highlighting the sports events and heroes that the media would give a miss (intentionally or not). Just a suggestion : How about having a section for the unsung sports heros (local/national), (current/past),. A section that would showcase their achievements. e.g. Chetan Baboor : Played national level at 16. Won 2 CWG gold. Arjun Award winner. Won national title 4 times. - Abhijeet
