The injury happened every few months, which meant that there was no chance of attending trials. During this process, Sharath completed his engineering, then started his own online tutoring and sports management firm and engaged in online tutoring of K­12 students in the US. It aimed at recruiting talented young footballers, developing them and trading them to different clubs and created a network of over 100 tutors across the country serving more than 3,000 students.

　　Later, seeing that there were small coaching centres but not an academy, he went on to create Dream United Football Academy.

　　Setting up a football academy has its own challenges, the biggest of which is obtaining land. Even rental costs are high and there aren't any good fields. Also, who would, apart from someone with a deep pocket, fund a football project? "I met my school friend Ajey Patil. He came on board a co­founder of the academy. We approached four land owners who had knowledge of sports. They gave us the land for a rent­free lease of 10 years and we began to get the basic development of the land，" says Sharath.

　　There are the final stages of signing a deal with a top university to search for players across the country, and for additional financial help. The academy also has a few sponsors who have shown interest in the various year­round tournaments and are in the process of setting up a trust fund.

　　"We have a three­year timeline to produce high quality players worthy of playing abroad，" adds Sharath.
