AIFF President visits Royal Football Club, Jaipur
Mr. Kalyan Chaubey, the President of the All India Football Federation (AIFF) visited Royal FC Jaipur in Jan. 2025 as part of the national initiative to bridge the gap between grassroots academies and professional league structures. The visit focused on evaluating Royal FC’s alignment with the "Vision 2047" roadmap, specifically regarding talent identification and sustainable club licensing.


World Stage to Club's Training Ground
Royal FC Jaipur hosted a delegation from Nepal led by the legendary Mr. Upendra Man Singh. Singh, one of the most respected figures in South Asian football, a former Nepal National team captain and former Vice President of All Nepal Football Association and the Head of Grassroots, arrived with his youth squad to initiate a first-of-its-kind cross-border youth exchange program in India. Mr. Upendra Man Singh widely regarded as one of Nepal’s greatest-ever goalkeepers, he earned over 50 caps for his country. He was the first-choice keeper during a "Golden Era" for Nepalese football in the 1990s and early 2000s.


Legendry National Icon & Arjuna Awardee at Club
Mr. Magan Singh Rajvi is the "Crown Jewel" of Rajasthan football. A former Captain of the Indian National Team (1973–1974), he was a key member of the historic squad that won the Bronze Medal at the 1970 Asian Games. As an Arjuna Awardee, his visit to Royal FC Jaipur carries immense symbolic weight, bridging the gap between the "Golden Era" of Indian football and the modern professional academy structure in Rajasthan.


Qualification to AIFF Youth League
Royal FC Jaipur has officially qualified for the AIFF Under-16 Youth League 2026 edition. This achievement follows the team's success in winning the U-15 Rajasthan League in 2025. By winning the U-15 Rajasthan League and moving into the AIFF national circuit, the club provides a direct pathway for local players to compete against the best academies in India. This exposure is critical for scouts monitoring talent for National Team age-group call-ups and professional clubs in the ISL and I-League
