The third edition of the Future Stars Academy (FSA) Spider Cars tournament once again hit the sweet spot as over 450 children had an opportunity to take part in this football development tournament.
A total of 30 teams, which consisted of the age groups of u.9, u.11, u.13 and u.15 participated in this event which took place on the fields of THS Potchefstroom on Saturday, 10 June.
“The most important aspect is to expose the kids to a tournament set-up and to let younger players participate. Most tournaments start at the u.13 level, so this is a great opportunity for the younger players to get used to tournament football,” stated the organiser of the tournament, Claudio Lucas.
