In a cricket crazy nation, Sikkim presents a different picture with its love for football. And now soccer fever is catching up among youngsters as a recreational activity as well as a profession. The 153 FIFA ranking of India hasn't dampened the love of football among the people of Sikkim. This fact was sufficiently illustrated when hundreds of soccer crazy fans came to watch 30th Governor Gold cup which was recently concluded in Gangtok.
