Organized by the French International School of Tirana, the Tirana Soccer Cup is an interschool sports competition taking place from April 14 to 16, 2025. This exciting event brings together students from French schools across the Balkans and Italy, united by their passion for football and a shared spirit of teamwork, sportsmanship, and excellence.
More than just a tournament, the Tirana Soccer Cup is a human and educational experience. It involves our entire school community—players, referees, young reporters, and student organizers—offering everyone a chance to take on a meaningful role. The event promotes student engagement, responsibility, initiative, and collaboration.
This year, we are also honored to welcome high school students from Lycée Joseph Fourier in Auxerre, who specialize in refereeing. Their presence will enhance the competition and support the training of our own student referees and organizers.
