It is a chilly early morning in December. The sprawling ground of St. John’s Higher Secondary School, Parappur, in Thrisur is buzzing with energy and excitement. Budding football players, covered in mud and sweat, are engaged in their morning practice.
These children of various age groups are getting trained under the Parappur Football Club, may be the only club in the name of a village on the All India Football Federation (AIFF) accreditation list.
