FC Goa confirm Indian Super Gaming League as Principal Sponsor for the 2025-26 ISL season, adding a major new name to the club’s commercial list. The ISGL logo will feature on the front of FC Goa’s matchday shirts, placing the gaming league at the centre of the team’s visual identity throughout the campaign.

The agreement arrives as schedules for the Indian Super League and the first season of the Indian Super Gaming League align. This timing allows both competitions to build interest together, linking football followers and gaming audiences during the same competitive window across India.

As part of the long-term plan, ISGL aims to draw FC Goa supporters and gaming fans into one connected community. The Principal Sponsor will feature on jerseys, across FC Goa’s digital channels, and in other promotional activities. The parties plan collaborative content that highlights both traditional football and organised e-sports competition.

ISGL is a project of parent company LetsGameNow, which has long experience in staging gaming tournaments across different titles. Indian Super Gaming League is described as the first of its type for India in terms of overall format, scale, and number of games included. The organisers expect strong celebrity presence at the league’s finale.

The league is set to draw participants from five Indian cities for its qualifying stages. Players will compete in multiple e-sports titles, using the circuit as a route towards national visibility. The Goa qualifying event, held with FC Goa, is scheduled for 6th March, with registrations handled through Indian Super Gaming League’s official website.

That qualifying schedule leads into a showpiece final in Mumbai on 15th March. Organisers state that well-known personalities from different industries are expected at the closing event. The structure is designed to give local talent exposure, while also presenting e-sports in a stadium-style environment that mirrors major offline sports events.

FC Goa emphasise that the tie-up with Indian Super Gaming League supports wider growth of e-sports in India. ISGL is positioned as a structured system for emerging players, offering organised events and clearer routes for progress. The league looks to strengthen a scene that already has a strong base of gamers across urban and semi-urban centres.

Commenting on the association, FC Goa CEO Ravi Puskur said, “We are very happy to have ISGL on board as our Front of Shirt sponsor for the 2025-26 ISL Season. E-sports is gaining well-deserved momentum in the country right now, and FC Goa are proud to be part of the same uprising. ISGL’s novel undertaking to bring structure and development models to the gaming industry is perfectly in line with FC Goa’s philosophy of developing from the ground up. We are excited to see what the future holds for the young and spirited gaming community in Goa and the rest of the country through ISGL’s passion and effort.”

Gautam Badalia, LetsGameNow Co-Founder, speaking on the occasion said, “At ISGL, our mission has always been to identify, nurture, and provide a credible platform for young talent to shine. Partnering with FC Goa as Principal Sponsor is a natural extension of that vision. FC Goa represents the footballing aspirations of Goa’s youth on the national stage and shares our belief in building structured, professional pathways for emerging talent.

“This partnership reflects a strategic integration of traditional sport and esports, extending established sporting legacy into competitive gaming. Whether on the pitch or on the console, excellence is shaped by discipline, opportunity, and ambition, and together we aim to empower the next generation to compete with confidence at national and global levels.”
