The Tximist Cup has closed its eighth edition on a high note, attracting more than 2500 players from the best academies in the world who competed passionately in Hondarribia. The stands of the stadium were filled with fans, creating a vibrant and exciting atmosphere that was felt throughout the tournament.
The event was inaugurated with the ‘She Leads’ congress, which brought together at the Reale Arena Stadium more than 150 people committed to the development, empowerment and leadership of women through sport. This congress not only marked the start of the Tximist Cup, but also demonstrated the commitment of the Tximist Foundation to the growth of women’s sport worldwide. Knowledge was generated, ideas were contributed and the visibility and presence of female role models was promoted. With the certainty that the girls of today will be the leaders of tomorrow, the doors were opened to pioneers and leaders who have left their mark.
The impact has been impressive, with a direct impact on more than 10,000 people. In addition, the online coverage was phenomenal, with more than 15,000 web hits and live views of the matches, allowing fans from all over the world to be part of this great tournament.
In the U14 category, Real Sociedad were crowned champions in a penalty shoot-out against FC Barcelona, who finished runners-up. In the U17 category, Olympique Lyon were victorious, also on penalties, with Wolfsburg as runners-up. In the Legends category, the champions were the players of the AFE team, followed by the Real Sociedad veterans, who took second place. The ‘Tximist Cup Values’ award was presented to RB Leipzig for the values demonstrated on and off the football field.
Days before the start of the eighth edition, the Tximist Foundation received the prestigious ‘ODS AWARD‘, reaffirming its position in the encouragement and promotion of women’s sport. In addition, in October 2023, the Tximist Cup tournament was recognised as an ‘event of public interest’ by the Consejo Superior de Deportes, proving to be much more than a football tournament.
