Odisha FC is leaving no stone unturned in its preparations for the upcoming Hero ISL season. The Indian players were first to arrive in Goa and after that, four foreigners have also joined the team. Apart from the regular training sessions, the coaching team, led by Head Coach Kiko Ramirez, is also making sure that they have regular match practice by organising the pre-season friendlies. There is a good mixture of youth and experience in the side and the technical staff are mixing football and fun in good proportion as well.
 

Meanwhile, this season is again going to be a season played inside a bio-secure bubble and without the fans for the second time in a row. The players will miss the Juggernauts this season again and so will be the fans as they will have to support their favourite players from their homes. However, the OFC Digital Team - Ayan Chatterjee (Head of Digital) and Suvankar Samanta (Digital Media Executive) - is giving it all with an attempt to bring the experience straight from Goa to the mobile sets and tablets of the passionate fans.
 

Odisha FC has recently launched two video series - OFC Inside Access and OFC Pitch-side Cam - on its YouTube handle. The first episode of Inside Access shows the daily routine of the players for the morning practice session while the first video of Pitch-side Cam is based on the pre-season friendly that the Bhubaneswar-based side won against FC Goa Reserves.
