Former player and coach Sharif Khan AV will be the first head coach of the Kerala Blasters women’s team. His appointment is on a long-term contract.
As for Kerala Blasters FC, Rizwan, Director of Kerala Blasters FC Academy and Women’s Team, said the project had been in the works for some time.

KBFC’s role towards that will be huge and our impact as a club will be very important,” added Rizwan.
