Are you a football freak!!?

Is football all over your mind?

Then this is really gonna shake your mind!!! All you football freaks….Manchester City Football Club may be in India in the near future! Manchester City officials are in India these days looking forward to set up a Manchester Academy here in Lavasa!! Now that’s what I say “Prosper India Prosper”!

The academy will be accessible to residents of the Lavasa township and will train children from 9 to eighteen. Apart from a constant physical presence, the club will have online training facilities for its students. Opportunities will also be given to children from outside Lavasa to train with the club academy. Coaching children will initially be done by the academy coaches available before identifying local coaches and training them to take over.

The western trends & games seems to have made a great impact on our Indian youth today. Why would one mind, till the time the youth of today gets to learn something out of it. Who knows tomorrow we might have an apna Indian ‘Carloz Tevez’ setting football records or could be that we have a huge fan following for Football.

Kuddos to Lavasa!!!!

Want to get away from the city heat??….want to enjoy the rains with your loved ones????


But one second guys….yeah I know its hard to think of getting drenched in these polluted, unhealthy and not at all eco-friendly cities…And yes how to forget water logging…..?Oh gosh……..


Pompous promises made on building a better infrastructure which will not hamper the cities with water floods…But guys what happens when it rains heavily…..for instance 26th July 2005???? What after that???


Every year in Mumbai you ought to face floods, long hours on the railway platforms and yes no electricity!!Phew…..


Today rains are a threat to our so called urban and high standard cities……



Wish all these obstacles just vanish. What if we had our office just next to our residence…no worries about heavy rains, frequent transport and all the required facilities just round the corner!!!


Been to Lavasa? Heavy greenery around……..clean and neat environment……eco-friendly surroundings….and yes no water logging problem at all !!! Lavasa cities are built in such an organized manner that in every city one need not go far than a kilometer away to fetch for things he requires.

From schools, corporate buildings, shopping centers,fun activities and all the daily requirements just round the corner…Don’t you think we need more such organized and systematized cities like Lavasa?? Check this out!!!

Wish to own a dream house here at Lavasa???Why wait..!!
