Fulham U18s will fly out to Germany on Wednesday morning to take part in the REWE Junior Cup, an annual five-a-side tournament held in Göttingen.
It’s our 13th appearance in the tournament and Ali Melloul’s side reached the final in both 2020 and 2023. It was a Quarter-Finals exit last time out as Fulham were defeated 2-1 by AZ Alkmaar in the last eight, despite an impressive group stage campaign, picking up 14 points from six matches.
REWE Junior Cup: Explained
Played in front of a loud crowd at the Lokhalle indoor arena in Göttingen, 28 teams will compete in this year’s Junior Cup, split into four groups of seven.
This means our Young Whites will play six group games, with the top four sides from each group progressing to the qualifiers.
Each game lasts 13 minutes and the ball will constantly be moving, with boards positioned around the pitch to keep it in play.
All of our matches in Germany will be streamed live on the REWE Junior Cup YouTube channel. Our group fixtures are listed below.
