Doha: The Qatar Indian Football Forum (QIFF) will pay tribute to K. Mohamed Easa, fondly known as Easakka, a stalwart of Qatar’s football community, with a memorial event at Doha Stadium on Saturday, February 15, at 8 PM. A visionary leader who played a crucial role in promoting football among the Indian diaspora, Easakka’s contributions to the sport have left an enduring impact.

Serving as the long-time president and the current chief coordinator of QIFF, Easakka was instrumental in organizing All-India football tournaments and fostering a spirit of sportsmanship among expatriates. His sudden passing has created a deep void in the football fraternity, with players, fans, and organizers mourning the loss of a dedicated mentor and leader.

QIFF has extended an open invitation to sports enthusiasts, former players, and well-wishers to gather at the stadium where Easakka’s passion for football thrived. The memorial will be an opportunity for friends and colleagues to share their memories and honor his legacy of dedication, perseverance, and goodwill in the sporting community.
