International Youth Football Tournaments at Lake Garda
For a few days, the area around Sirmione and Lazise turns Lake Garda into a meeting point for youth teams from different countries. The SOCCACUP tournaments combine exciting days of football with a destination that has plenty to offer away from the pitch – from the lake itself to the picturesque towns in the south of the region.
Dolce vita meets football. Enjoy action-packed days of football and Italian flair right by Lake Garda. The unique atmosphere around the lake makes the tournament trip an experience where the time spent together as a team is just as memorable as the matches themselves. With the Girls Edition, we also offer a dedicated youth football tournament at Lake Garda for girls’ teams, giving the event its own distinctive character.

The SOCCACUP at Lake Garda is about more than the competition on the pitch. The tournament locations in Lazise and Sirmione make it easy to combine football with time together away from the matches. The mild climate from spring onwards also provides favourable conditions for an Easter football tournament, making Lake Garda an attractive destination for youth teams at this time of year.
The venues around Sirmione and Lazise provide excellent conditions for an international football tournament at Lake Garda. Both the Stadio Rovizza in Sirmione and the sports complex at Resort Veronello offer natural-grass and artificial-turf pitches. This gives the tournament organisers greater flexibility and helps provide good playing conditions even when the weather is changeable.
There is also plenty to do away from the football pitch. Attractions such as Gardaland offer teams an exciting way to spend their free time. Those who prefer a more relaxed pace can explore the lakeside towns, wander through their narrow streets or enjoy Italian cuisine in one of the many local restaurants.
"Lake Garda combines excellent conditions for youth football with a fantastic setting for a team trip. The venues, with their unmistakable Italian charm, and the lake itself make the destination equally attractive for teams and accompanying guests.”
Stefan Fastlabend, SOCCACUP Tournament Director
