EFA Okinawa Wins Silver at Thailand Youth Cup!

What an incredible week for the European Football Academy Okinawa! Our young players recently returned from the Thailand Youth International Cup in Pattaya, and they brought back more than just trophies; they brought back invaluable experience and a sense of pride that defines our academy.

U10: A Final to Remember

Our U10 squad put on a masterclass of determination. In a field of over 90 teams from 9 different countries, our boys battled their way to the Grand Final.

While we narrowly missed out on the gold with a 2–0 loss in the final against a fantastic opponent, the result only tells half the story. The EFAO spirit was on full display—our players fought with heart, attitude, and courage until the final whistle. We are incredibly proud of this group; they proved that they can compete with the best in Asia.

U13: Growth on the Global Stage

Our U13 team also took on the challenge of this high-level international environment. For them, this trip was about evolution. Facing diverse playing styles and physical competition, they showed remarkable growth every single day. The lessons learned in Pattaya will be the foundation for their success in the upcoming season.

Thank You, EFAO Family!

A huge thank you to the parents, coaches, and supporters who made this trip possible. Your energy fuels our progress. This successful expedition is a testament to our European training methodology and our commitment to giving Okinawa’s youth a global stage.

This is the way forward.

See you on the pitch!
