Copa Marbella is an international youth football festival which uses the immaculate 'MPFS' complex in La Quinta, Marbella as well as the professional training facilities at the Atalaya Park Hotel. In 2009 there will be four editions of Copa Marbella encompassing teams from many nations including Spain, England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Sweden, Canada and the USA.

Young footballers aged from 6-19 take part in 7-a-side and 11-a-side mini-leagues playing on top quality surfaces before progressing to the exciting
knock-out stages. The final night of each festival is capped with the impressive awards ceremony during which all players receive a trophy. Of course the champions, fair-play winners and players of the tournament have the glory of their special moment receiving their special trophies.

However Copa Marbella is not only about a top quality youth football festival played at the best football facilities . . . Copa Marbella is a holiday in one of the most popular tourist resorts in Europe along with the best climate. Away from the football, teams can enjoy the extensive tourist attractions in the area. This is made

particularly easy as Copa Marbella can organise a wide range of exciting excursions to suit the needs of any team. Theme parks, safari adventures, watersports, go-karting, catamaran dolphin searches/cruises, shooting and quad-biking are all possibilities.

Teams are be able to enjoy comfortable and family-orientated hotels which are all well-located on the sunny Costa-Del-Sol. The Copa Marbella staff have carefully chosen a selection of 3, 4 and 5-Star hotels in order to cater for all budgets. Teams are only placed in hotels with good quality rooms/apartments and extensive facilities suitable for children. And despite the fact that all of the hotels are of an excellent standard, we guarantee that Copa Marbella hotel accommodation is cheaper than the equivalent at other top European International Youth Football Festivals.
