Here's a recap of the month of July:
âš½ Brilliant Moments at Zanpa Field in Yomitan
On July 15th, the EFAO U/12 and U/10 categories participated in a local soccer tournament at the Zanpa field in Yomitan in which they displayed remarkable teamwork, creativity, and determination, impressing spectators and coaches alike with their abilities.
The real beauty of the event was not just in the display of soccer talent, but in the positive atmosphere that prevailed throughout. The emphasis was on fair play, mutual respect, and the joy of playing together. Gratitude was expressed to Sobe FC and Furugen Minami for their participation and sportsmanship. These friendly teams not only added to the competitive spirit of the day but also embodied the true essence of youth sports - building character, fostering friendships, and teaching valuable life lessons.
The supportive environment nurtured the children's confidence and allowed them to showcase their talents without inhibition. Such grassroots events play a crucial role in the development of our young players.
Events like these not only inspire the young generation but also remind us of the pure joy and passion that the sport brings to people of all ages.

On July 22-23, the EFAO U/8 and U/10 categories played the Finals of the Challenge Cup tournament in Hokkaido, which proved to be a remarkable event for EFAO. With a display of outstanding talent and dedication, our young athletes showcased their skills, securing second place in the U/8 category and an impressive third place in the U/10 category.
âš½ EFAO in Spain: The Donosti Cup Journey
