The Spirit Behind Rebels FC
We Are Rebels Fc
-
Rebels FC is a Super division club playing in the top flight of Karnataka state's Super division League since 2022. The club recognised by All India Football Federation, Karnataka State Football Association and Bangalore District Football Association, is a formidable name in competitive football tournaments having played in over 500 knockouts and leagues.
Powered By Love For The Game
- The mission is to make football a premier national sport of India with a vision to spread a footballing culture and values right from the grassroots level to professional environments. The goal is to meet the aspirations of budding talent, nurture and develop them into world-class players.
Creating Next-gen Footballers
- Rebels FC promotes young talent through the academy by helping the student-athletes with everything they need to conquer their ‘Football Dream’. This includes access to our professional coaches, training facilities and opportunities to leapfrog into competitive tournaments.
Where belief meets resilience
The Origin of Rebels FC
Dared To Believe
- The idea of a Football Club was conceived by a passionate group of 16-year olds who played, dreamed and dared to believe, together. The collective thought was to give direction to our passion by playing in recognised platforms which in turn would motivate us further.
A Rebel Is Born
- So commenced the journey in 2006. With the intent came the name ‘Rebel’, inspired by the theme of 'Rang De Basanti' a cult hit. Our young minds couldn’t help but draw parallels with football and in life where to rebel against the ordinary was imperative to become exceptional.
a Legend In The Badge
- Rebels FC’s mascot the legendary bird Phoenix is a symbol of rebirth, regeneration and resilience. The founders unanimously deemed it appropriate and representative of each team member. In sum, wearing the badge signifies to hope, to rise and to thrive.
How we play, give back, and rise stronger every day.
The Rebel Spirit
The Rebels Fc Way Of Play
- The attitude ‘You cannot defeat someone who never gives up’ combines with the European and South American approach to football, resulting in a unique style of play which is tactical, disciplined, dynamic and intense. This is further adapted effectively to the context of Indian football.
The Kick Back
- Rebels FC goes beyond the playing fields into community-driven projects using football as means of transformation. The club works with the foundation to provide resources and opportunities for underprivileged children to make a career out of football, through scholarships, free coaching and as a vocation.
In Reminiscence
- The name Rebels couldn’t have been more apt considering the path of professional footballers where every day is a fight to be a better version of themselves, to sharpen their skills, to bounce back after a fail, to be smarter, faster, stronger and extraordinary is to rebel.
