Who are we?

The Associations Cup is a vibrant grassroots football tournament held annually in the United Kingdom, bringing together National Football Associations for a celebration of youth football and sportsmanship. Established as a continuation of the legacy of the Celtic Cup, the tournament has evolved into a cherished event that unites young athletes from diverse regions.

Last year, it was held at the National Sports Training Centre Inverclyde in Largs, Scotland, with four National Associations in attendance. This year, we are excited to host the expanded event in Blackpool, ensuring a thrilling experience for all participants and fans.
