FA Euro New York x Yes Cup 2026

FA Euro New York has been invited to compete at the YES Cup 2026, one of Italy’s premier international youth football tournaments, hosted in the dynamic and historic city of Milan. Held during the Easter holidays, the YES Cup gathers elite talent from across Europe and beyond, offering players a high–level, fast–paced competitive experience.

Last year’s edition welcomed teams from more than a dozen countries—including Italy, Spain, Germany, France, the United States, and the Balkans—bringing together hundreds of players ready to showcase their quality on an international platform. The YES Cup is known for its strong competition, professional organization, and vibrant, energetic atmosphere.

The tournament is centered in Milan, with matches played across top–tier facilities used by Italian academy programs. Teams stay in comfortable accommodations throughout the greater Milan area, keeping travel short and convenient while allowing players to stay fully immersed in the experience.

Between matches, participants can soak in the culture, fashion, and history that make Milan one of Europe’s most iconic cities. Explore the stunning Duomo di Milano, shop or stroll through the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, visit Sforza Castle, or take in the architectural beauty of Piazza del Duomo. Football fans can even catch a glimpse of the legendary San Siro Stadium, home to AC Milan and Inter.

The cost is $2,500 per player and includes round-trip flights, hotel accommodations, three meals per day, ground transportation, and all tournament fees. With everything taken care of, players can focus entirely on competing and making unforgettable memories.
