What to expect
Teams from dozens of countries
The Elite Round gathers top-level academies from across Europe. Your squad meets football schools it would not face in a domestic league season.
Five age groups, two formats
From 2015 to 2019 birth years, playing 8v8 and 5v5. The youngest groups debut at the Kings Cup in 2027.
One base, three arenas
Everything happens at the central football base of Estonia on Jalgpalli 19 — indoor hall and outdoor arenas minutes apart, so April weather never touches the fixture list.
