Club career
He started his football career with DAV College(winning all the idc under 15, 17 & 19 with DAV College) and namsau rangers with the League Club as a 19-year-old and played for Ba for 13 years winning the Fiji FACT, Battle of the Giants and National Football League titles with the team in the mid-1990s.[2]
In January 2015 he was appointed coach of Ba.[3] In January 2021 he was appointed coach of Nadi F.C.[4] He resigned from the position in November 2021.[5]
International career
Lal has assisted in multiple national team campaigns and played the head coach role for top Fiji club Ba FC in the past, but having full responsibility of a national youth team has been a totally new experience. Lal plans to continue his development as a coach and pick up his OFC A Licence as his next project, but that personal goal has been put on hold while he focuses all his energy on his young side's success at the OFC U-17 Championship.[6]
In 2014 he served as assistant coach of the Fiji national under-20 football team.[7]
