Indo Nissin with its global partnership with Manchester United brings to Indian school children between the ages of 13 to 17 years, an opportunity to train with respected Manchester United Soccer Schools coaches in India.
After the great success of MUSS Season one, which covered four cities, Cup Noodles will now host selection camps in six cities Guwahati, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi, where kids from 50 schools in each city would be undergoing trials and selections by well known Local coaches.
Five kids from each city would be selected for the Finals at Bangalore where the 30 chosen ones, would undergo extensive two days of training under Manchester United Soccer Schools coaches, and then play a Finale-Match.
After the Finals, four kids would be chosen to travel to Manchester and watch a Manchester United match at Old Trafford, and get training tips from Soccer Schools coaches at the hallowed ground.
"When Creatigies approached us with this concept, we at Indo Nissin went ahead with a long term support for the game. It is a delight to extend this initiative this year and bring in a wider geography covering 6 cities across the country. We expect the second season of Cup Noodles Manchester United Soccer School 2017 to discover more foot balling talent this year, and plan to make this event bigger each year," Managing Director Indo Nissin Foods Pvt. Ltd., Gautam Sharma.
"The success of the ISL over the last three seasons has greatly influenced the popularity of Football in India. More international stars have joined the various teams, and new talent from India has also emerged. Through the second season of Cup Noodles Muss we further reinforce Manchester United's commitment to the grass-root level development of football in India. I compliment Nissin and truly support their endeavor," said Quinton Fortune, the famous Manchester United legend who was in Delhi to launch the Event.
