WORLD FOOTBALL DAY 2024

 



Today, in 2024, the world marks the 100th anniversary of the first international football tournament involving teams from all regions, held on May 25, 1924, during the Summer Olympic Games in Paris.

As per UN resolution, the annual World Football Day on May 25 was declared to acknowledge “the global reach of football and its impact in various spheres, including commerce, peace and diplomacy, and recognizing that football creates a space for cooperation”.

The primary objectives of the World Football Day event are:

 To celebrate the universal appeal and power of football as a tool for positive social impact.

 To provide a platform for member states and stakeholders to share their experiences and perspectives on how football can be leveraged to address global challenges.

On this WORLD FOOTBALL DAY, LET’s OFFER OUR SALUTES TO THESE 3 INSPIRING FOOTBALLERS:

RONALDO:

Ronaldo is widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time and has a huge following of fans around the world. He is known for his exceptional dribbling skills, incredible speed, and his exceptional goal-scoring ability.

 Ronaldo's relentless work ethic is a source of inspiration for professionals in any field. From his rigorous training regimen to his unwavering commitment to self-improvement, Ronaldo sets a high standard for dedication and discipline.

MESSI:

 Born in Rosario, Argentina, in 1987, Lionel Messi is widely regarded as one of the greatest football players of all time, and his illustrious career proves why. The Argentinean footballer, who holds a record eight Ballon d'Or awards, has displayed his talent early on and has always been destined for greatness.

 From his famous quote, "You have to fight to reach your dream. You have to sacrifice and work hard for it," to his simple but powerful motto, "Never stop believing," Messi's quotes encapsulate the values and mind-set that have led him to the pinnacle of the footballing world.

BHAICHUNG BHUTIA:

He is a former Indian footballer who played as a striker. He is from the Sikkim state of India. He is often referred to as the Sikkimese Sniper because of his shooting skills. He was awarded the Arjuna Award in 1998 and the Padma Shri in 2008 by the government of India.

Bhutia has had four spells at I-League football team East Bengal Club, the club where he started his career. When he joined English club Bury in 1999, he became the first Indian footballer to sign a contract with a European club and only the second to play professionally in Europe, after Mohammed Salim.

Bhaichung Bhutia's journey began in a remote village in Sikkim, India, where he first fell in love with the beautiful game. His formative years were characterized by an unwavering dedication to football, fueled by an insatiable desire to excel.
