He said for AMMA FC to survive, there was a need to renew its approach and rethink on its activities.

"The next step for AMMA FC is to transform from an NGO structure to one more robust private limited company at the organizational set up," said Bikram.

The confidence and support of the Andro Village Committee has been visible.

The committee has provided a dedicated club space and a playing field, he said.

He exuded confidence that Andro will become the hub for the Indian Campaign to qualify for the FIFA 2027 Women's World Cup.
