Holland Easter Open
April 2-5th 2021
The Easter Open is a two-day international youth football tournament, for boys and girls.
This event didn’t happen in 2020 because of the Coronavirus but in 2019 a total of 450 teams entered from Australia, Denmark, Wales, Germany, USA, England, Morocco, Finland, Scotland, South Africa and of course the Netherlands. Teams have also previously taken part from Luxemburg, Russia, Columbia, Belgium, Nigeria, Japan, Norway and Ireland. One of the great things about this tournament you get the chance to play against teams from different countries.
The tournament will be played over the Easter weekend, Saturday and Sunday. In total there will be 50 excellent grass pitches in use over the weekend. On Saturday the group-stage matches will be played on random grounds. On Sunday each age group plays off in their final games at the same pitches. Every team plays either 5 or 6 matches.
