Between Ascension Day and Corpus Christi, European youth soccer became the stage for something very special: In Spain, Croatia, Italy and the Netherlands Five KOMM MIT tournaments have brought together around 5,000 children and young people — from all over Europe and even beyond.

Five weeks full of emotions, encounters and unforgettable experiences.

People played passionately on the courts — sang, danced, cheered and, above all, made friends. Across language borders. Beyond club colors.

Because KOMM MIT is about more than goals and tables. It's about what soccer can do: Connect people. Bridging differences. Strengthen cooperation.

Our tournaments create spaces for a genuine, lively Europe — colorful, open, friendly. And when a team of canada When the nations are cheered for, it becomes clear: These encounters extend far beyond continental borders. Like in a small Olympic village, young people from many nations meet. When shaking hands after the game, eating together, cheering on a foreign team or at joint opening and closing parties, it becomes clear how strong the sense of togetherness can be on and off the pitch.

For many German participating teams, it was the perfect end to the season. A journey that has made team spirit and club membership noticeable. A time in which children and young people were able to experience what it was like to be part of a team — on and off the pitch.

Whether on the Mediterranean Sea, in historic old towns or on well-maintained artificial turf — you could feel everywhere what KOMM MIT has stood for for over 40 years: For international youth meetings. For a strong community. For a Europe that connects — and takes the world with it.

What remains are countless memories, new friendships and a strong feeling: We were there. We were part of KOMM MIT.
