Youth Football Club, Rurka Kalan, has been working in sports as well as education for the welfare of Punjab’s rural children in the YFC campus.
YFC Rurka Kalan provides free coaching and education to the players that eventually help them progress in their studies along with their game. But during the pandemic when the government had announced a lockdown in the whole country, everything was closed including companies, schools, colleges, and academics.
“In such scenarios, we also could not take sessions and tuition classes with the children. To overcome this challenge, we came up with online coaching and started giving online education classes to all the children”, said YFC members.
