Adhering to requests from new bidders, the All India Football Federation on Tuesday (May 21) has invited a fresh tender notice inviting bids for new clubs to be a part of the I-League.
The winning bidders will be granted the right to own and operate a new club which will compete in the I-League in each year from 2013 onwards and have the opportunity (if applicable and subject to qualification) to compete in the AFC Club Competitions.
The invitation to the fresh tender will be available on working days between 10 am and 5 pm at AIFF Headquarters, Football House. All bidding parties need to fulfill the eligibility criteria (Club Licensing) and other requirements specified.
The last date for submission is Monday, May 27, 2013 by 12 am.
Bidders who have submitted their bids as part of earlier bidding process have an option of either collecting their existing bid and submit a fresh bid or to submit a consent letter for considering their existing bids. In either case, they are not required to purchase the fresh RFP Document.
The bids would then be evaluated by a Technical Evaluation Committee which meets on April 27. The results would be announced within a week from the day.
