Bombay Intl has come a long way from a 7-player team

Bombay International School (Babulnath) has sure come a long way from the time they made their debut in the MSSA inter-school football tournament in 1995-96.
"The first year we took part in the MSSA league, we played with seven players, which is also the minimum number of players required for a match to take place," Bombay International's coach Milind Parsekar recalled.
Parsekar saw his efforts pay off in the 2006 -07 season when his under-12 and under-14 boys' teams won the Division III titles. Though assembling a full strength team seemed to be a difficult task, coach Parsekar was up for the challenge.
Today the school has all age group teams in the boys' category. Their girls' teams participate in the under-12 to under-16 age groups.
