Khelemba Singh hails from Imphal. He had started playing football since his schooldays. His talent didn't go unnoticed and he soon played in the Manipur League for SSC Sekta & Sagaoband United. In 2004, he joined Guwahati's Green Valley F.C. and then played in the I-League 2nd division for Assam State Electricity Board (ASEB), the same year. After joining Churchill Brothers in 2005, Khelemba played for four other I-League clubs Viva Kerala, East Bengal, Air India & Salgaocar before joining McDowell Mohun Bagan.
Viva Kerala[]
In the I-League match at Calicut against Air India, when Sulley Mussah had fouled Badmus Babatunde, Viva Kerala captain Khelemba Singh scored from a 40-yard long stunning free kick, a thriller which finally ended in a 3–2 win for the home team.[1]
