I know its not actively connected to this story, but when I was in melb for IC08, I also had a chance to talk to my club I played with in 2006, the Hampton Hammers. Their president, Ian Dougerty explained that this season they had had an Indian exchange student play for them and that he´d completely fallen for the game and Aussie culture. I cant remember his name, but apparantly he had even made seniors on a few occations. I mentioned that there was an Indian team at the IC..he could hardly believe me. Anyways, when he was going home in a years time, he was certainly bringing the game with him...

Next step would be looking at other major cities in India. I'm guessing Mumbai,
Delhi, Chennai etc would have to already be on the planning board.

There would have to be at least a few Australians and other footy fans in the
country who'd be interested in helping out. Mickey Rodriguez, who I believe
played for Spain at the 2005 IC and has since been playing in Catalonia,
emailed me a little while ago saying he is moving to Mumbai and might be
interested in getting something going there...

Let's see where Indian footy goes in the near future.
