ANTALYA CUP

APRIL 3-6, 2026

All matches in our tournament will be played in the U12 category, following standard field dimensions and football rules.

Match durations, number of players, penalty area, and penalty rules are clearly defined.

To support our children’s development with the spirit of fair play, a “white card” system will be used instead of red cards. Each team will play at least 5 matches, and both group and knockout stage games will be officiated by certified referees. In addition, all participants will be awarded medals, and the final matches will be broadcast live and recorded professionally.
