Garhwal FC, formerly known as Garhwal Heroes FC, founded by Mr. Kesar Singh Negi in Delhi, was started as a platform to encourage the youth from the community to play football and to promote the spirit of competition. Gaining in popularity, the club was formally registered with the Delhi Soccer Association (DSA) in 1953.The club experienced crowning glory in 1986, when they won the Delhi Senior Division League. An unfortunate turn of events and financial constraints, however, resulted in relegation to lower divisions. In 2001, after being taken over by Mr. BS Negi and Mr. MS Patwal, the club started its ascent once more, from the nadir of the B Division, onto A Division and then finally to the Senior Division in 2005. Strong community support and the spirit to thrive resulted in the club delivering strong results, and reclaiming lost glory by winning the Delhi Senior Division League once again in 2012-13. Also going on to win the Delhi leg of the Manchester United Premier Cup, a nationwide U16 club competition in 2013.Driven by ambition and its core values of Unity, Bravery and Victory, Garhwal FC has reinvented itself in the past few years. In 2013, the club succeeded in a strategic partnership with the Bhaichung Bhutia Football Schools, in order to further youth development and develop a strong scouting network.For the first time in the rich history of the 60 year old club, they are now primed to achieve success in the I-League 2nd Division in 2014. Garhwal FC continues to remain resilient and aims to promote a safe, friendly and family-oriented environment in which players and supporters can enjoy the game of football freely, representing in their entirety the great Garhwal tradition of fighting against all odds and Delhi's inclusive character.
