The Goa Football Association : Associação de Futebol de Goa, was founded in 1959. The federation conducted its first Goan State League in 1959 also under the name of Goa First Division with Clube Independente de Margao becoming the champions.
The GFA then started the Goa Senior League in 1969.Then for the 1970-71 season they turned the league into a two division First Division, North Division and South Division. They then introduced the a Second Division and Third Division from 1971-72.
The GFA then started the Goa Super Division in 1977 with Salgaocar S.C. being the champions.The GFA also revamped the National State League by forming the Goa Professional League in 1997 with Salgaocar coming out as champions yet again.
Since 2002 the league was played as an eight team league with home-and-away fixtures making it 14 matches for each club. The GFA then announced that the 2011 season would
be played with 10 teams under a new format.
I started playing football at the age of 7. I decided to make my career in football when I got selected to play for the U-13 Don Bosco school team. As I was praised a lot for the skills I had.Its not just a career option to me it's my passion, my life.
It's a game loved by the world.
