Update on HJK Cup arrangements, May 2020
The restrictions in the Finnish society are gradually being lifted from the beginning of June and ie. the official youth football leagues are starting soon, mid-June.
Yesterday The Finnish FA / Palloliitto released the updated instructions for youth football tournament arrangements during the current COVID-19 situation. The instructions call for extra attention on hygiene, scheduling and other conditions during the event so we’ll of course be extra mindful with these things.
The most important thing is that HJK Cup will be arranged as planned, in September 2020, on the original dates 🙌.
HJK Cup team news from February 2020
Swedish top teams IF Brommapojkarna, Djurgårdens IF, Vasalunds IF, Nacka FC and Stockholm Juniors FC confirmed their participation earlier and we’re also very happy to host FK Zenit teams from St. Petersburg again in all age groups, from U9 to U13.
