At the Gründenmoos sports facility in St. Gallen, four amputee football teams faced each other at the 13th International Inclusion Cup 2026: from Ukraine, from Albania, from Greece and from France.
For many of these players there are only a few opportunities in the year to compete in a tournament of this size and in front of an audience. That is exactly what the International Inclusion Cup is for: not as a special event alongside football, but as a part of it.
A warm thank you to the four teams, some of whom travelled a long way to be there, and to everyone who made the tournament possible on and off the pitch.
