After numerous previous events, the idea of organising an international youth tournament grew after the corona crisis. In August 2022, the very first Easykit Youth Cup took place in Aalter. With 16 participating teams and only smiling faces, the first edition was a big success. Thanks to the great success and many requests, there was a second edition, with 24 teams, which was won by Feyenoord after a great final against Club Brugge. The third edition will take place on 24/08/2024 and is called ‘Suwie Youth Cup’.
Our tournament is unique because of several choices:
– we work exclusively with female referees
– we integrate G-football and ladies soccer
– we donate €1 per goal scored to a local charity
Previous winners of the tournament:
2022: Club NXT
2023: Feyenoord Rotterdam
