The third edition of the Dream Sports Championship-AIFF Junior League Finals will be held in Goa between May 3-14. This was announced through a media release by Dream Sports Foundation (DSF), the sports development arm of Dream Sports.
The finals of the AIFF Junior League has now been re-branded as the “DSC “ AIFF Junior League Finals 2026”, integrating the Dream Sports Championship into India’s official youth football club competition ecosystem.
The finals will feature sixteen teams from across India and is to be held in Goa between May 3 and 14, 2026, with league-stage matches scheduled at the Raia sports complex and the sports complex in Utorda. The final will be held at the Atal stadium in Bambolim.
As part of this collaboration, the existing AIFF Junior League structure will remain the qualification pathway, with regional rounds continuing to be conducted by AIFF. DSF will complement this framework at the national stage through a series of value-added interventions, including performance analysis, education and upskilling workshops for players, coaches, and support staff, as well as live streaming of matches on FanCode.
