XXI Pro Ludiset Amicitia

This tournament was born in 1988. Since then in its 20 editions the tournament grew up and reached unimaginable dimensions, from 8 teams in the first edition to 100 temas in the last one. Our aim for the next edition is really ambitious, we’d like to involve 120 teams. More than 18000 athletes took part tothe the tournament in the prevoius 20 years and at least 82000 spectators enjoyed it. Since the beginning this great event was based on some principles that never changed till now: football can give to the boys the right opportunity to live an important sport experience, that must be also a human experience. Beyond any results on the field and beyond the final ranking, this tournament always wanted to be a precious occasion for our boys to meet many other players and get immediately in touch with them thank to their innate friendly approach, that overcomes any cultural difference. That’s why, one of the main outline of this tounament has always been friendship beyond any differnce.
