Our U9s and U10s recently took part in our first ever international tournament, the CFT Cup held in Ličartovce, Slovakia. Facing off against top academies from Eastern Europe, including Slovan Bratislava, Dynamo Kiev, Vilnus Academy, and host CFT Presov, our young players displayed incredible bravery and determination throughout the competition.

​

While U9s they didn't quite manage to qualify for the grand gold finals, the fighting spirit of our U9s shone brightly. They battled their way through the secondary cup, taking it by storm! In an unforgettable final, they came back from a deficit to snatch a dramatic 2-1 victory with a late winning goal. The pure joy and elation on their faces as they secured the gold medal is a memory that will stay with them forever.

​

The U10s impressed throughout the tournament, playing some truly impressive football. Their hard work and dedication throughout the season truly paid off as they showcased their talents against some of Eastern Europe's top academies. They consistently played at a high level, demonstrating exceptional teamwork and skill.

While they narrowly missed out on second place in the final table due to goal difference, their third-place finish is a commendable achievement. The U10s should be incredibly proud of their performance, which is a true testament to their commitment and the strong foundation they've built this season.

​

Congratulations to both our U9 and U10 teams for their fantastic showing at the CFT Cup! Their dedication, talent, and fighting spirit are a true inspiration.

​

This international experience provided our players with invaluable opportunities to test their skills against top competition, develop their teamwork, and create lasting memories. It's a testament to their hard work, dedication, and never-give-up attitude that they were able to achieve such a remarkable feat.

We are incredibly proud of their accomplishment and excited to see them continue to grow and develop as footballers.
