Club career

[edit]

Born in Jalandhar, Punjab, Parwinder began his career with the Tata Football Academy based in Jamshedpur and graduated from the academy in 2006.[1] After graduating, he signed with National Football League side Sporting Goa.[2] He scored his first goal for the club on 26 November 2008 in a 1–0 victory over Churchill Brothers in the Goa Professional League and then his second a round later on 5 January 2009 against Dempo.[3] Parwinder stayed with the club until the end of the 2008–09 season.[4]

In 2010, Parwinder signed with I-League 2nd Division and MDFA Elite Division side ONGC.[5][6] In April 2012, he was part of the ONGC side that finished as champions during the 2012 season and thus earned promotion to the I-League.[7] In October 2012 it was announced that Parwinder would be retained by the club for their I-League campaign.[8] He made his professional debut for ONGC in the league on 10 February 2013 against United Sikkim. He started and played the whole match as it ended 0–0.[9]

On 19 September 2013, Parwinder was part of the ONGC side that took on Mohammedan in the Durand Cup final. His performance earned praise despite his side losing 2–1.[10] After the club were relegated from the I-League, Parwinder continued playing with ONGC in the MDFA Elite Division in 2015.[11]

International career

In March 2006 it was announced that Parwinder had been selected to join the India under-20 side for the 2006 AFC Challenge Cup.[12] He started in India's first match of the tournament against Afghanistan on 1 April. The match ended 2–0 in favor of India.[13]
