TATA FOOTBALL ACADEMY IS THE BEST IN THE COUNTRY IN TERMS OF FACILITIES PROVIDED. HOWEVER, FROM THE CASE STUDY WE CAN SEE THAT, TO OPERATE AT OPTIMUM LEVEL, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF AREAS WHICH NEED TWO BE UPGRADED IN TERMS OF SIZE. ALSO, FROM THE BEST PRACTICES WE KNOW THAT TO PERFORM AT HIGHEST LEVEL, NUMBER OF NEW FACILITIES ARE TO BE INCLUDED. THE ACADEMY HAS SPACES FOR 2TEAM BUSES (TATA STARBUS) AND A TATA SAFARI FOR OFFICIALS.
