NEW DELHI: Come the New Year, the Indian Senior Women's National Team will have a new look in the form of a new jersey.

The Blue Tigresses have been inspiring a generation while breaking down the barriers to move forward together the women’s game and now will be setting the trend wearing the new stripes in the AFC Women’s Asian Cup India 2022 from January 2022 onwards

AIFF General Secretary Mr. Kushal Das averred: “We are confident that the AFC Women's Asian Cup India 2022 will galvanise the masses, spread awareness about the women's game in India and inspire young girls in the country to take up the sport, and pursue their dreams.”

“For far too long not only in India but also globally the Women's game has lived under the shadows of men's football, and we need to collectively change it step by step,” the General Secretary added.

“Every single girl in our country who has taken up the sport across levels is a true tigress in the manner they have overcome sociological barriers. So it is fitting that we honour our Blue Tigresses with an individual identity, and an own independent kit. Looking ahead forward together, there is no better opportunity to do so than prior to the Flagship tournament for International Women's Football in Asia. Good luck girls.”

The new kit has stylized tiger stripes design element emblazoned reverberating the Blue Tigresses’ and Blue Tigers’ predatory instincts.

Ambar Aneja, Co-founder Six5Six stated: ''We’ve all witnessed the progress that our women’s team has made in the last few months. It’s been an honour for our entire team to be able to create something as special as this for them as they embark on their quest for the AFC Women’s Cup India 2022."
