IMPACT OF GOAL 2066
The real impact of GOAL 2066 is not just winning the Football World Cup, but a world-class sports ecosystem
Even if we fail to win the football World Cup, our efforts to win it will create a world-class sports ecosystem in India. The following infographic illustrates the impact of GOAL 2066 in football. It will also inspire other sports in India to grow and excel.

Our Efforts & Impact
Our efforts to create 100+ football leagues & 1000+ professional football clubs will have an impact in the following way.
Community Ownership & Capital Formation
If we create a fan-owned cooperative football club in each district in India, we can create 1000+ such clubs. India has more than 700 districts, and each district can own 1 fan-owned club, and big districts can own more than one club. Each club will have:
- 1,00,000 registered members
- Each member invests a minimum of ₹500
Then:
- ₹5 crore per club
- ₹5,000 crore total grassroots investment
No government funding. Just people investing in their local club.
MATCHDAY ECONOMY ALONE
(NO TV, NO SPONSORS)
Per match:
- 10,000 spectators
- ₹100 average ticket price
- ₹50 average food/refreshment spend
Revenue per match: ₹15,00,000
Annual revenue (9,000 matches):
₹13,500 crore
Government tax revenue (10%):
₹1,350 crore
EMPLOYMENT:

Club-Level Employment
Each club employs approx 300 professionals:

Total club jobs:
300 × 1,000 clubs = 3,00,000 jobs
