After a year, organizers of tournament have accepted a new challenge and are going even futher – they are making the tournament even bigger.

“We have been growing since we started organizing this tournament and we cannot stop now. Last year we had a pleasure having teams like “Brescia” and “Atalanta” from Italy, “Hammerby” from Sweden what was a very big step forwards. This year we are growing and expanding further and we are negotiating with the top football clubs of Europe” – said the main organiser Dainius Gudaitis.

This years list of participating teams is already half full and more participants should confirm their arrival during the next month.

“Political situation in the Eastern Europe may reduce the number of teams coming from Russia and Ukraine, but we are waiting for very strong teams from the Western part of Europe. We are also expecting more clubs to come from Scandinavia” – said D. Gudaitis.

“I am very glad that Lithuanian teams have a chance to play against well-known teams here, in Vilnius – in front of their friends and families. On the other hand, I am also happy that international teams really like it over here – the teams come back and bring more with them. ”

„Ateitis CUP 2015. Autumn“ will start on October 23^rd.
