The club is based in Old City of Srinagar and draws its name from there. It has been established by a group of football loving persons with the aim to step into I-League in future. The club aims to provide top class facilities to its members and want to give every aspiring footballer fair chance to book place in the team.

“Since the time we announced that we are going to conduct open selection trials, the club office has received hundreds of registration forms.

“It is first step towards a brighter future. It is mere start as we aim bigger goals and want to provide footballers platform to excel,” he added.
