THE NETHERLANDS

“With this tournament, a lot of impact is made for children: at a local level with the preliminary rounds in the six different countries, semi-finals and the national final leading to the European final in Paris.

The central theme during the tournament is Equality. After all, you play football as a team, children have to show respect for their opponent and of course having fun together. During the tournament, the theme of Equality recurs at various moments, for example by giving Equality points to the opponents.

A girl and a boys team from the Netherlands will go to the final in September. For those children, this will be an unforgettable experience that will make a lot of impact, by getting to know different cultures and of course having fun playing football.

We are grateful for the commitment shown by the European Union in co-funding this project.”
