“To meet in some of the best locations around the world, to compete through football and get to know air traffic con-trollers from all the globe is just some-thing incredible, which I will keep doing every year”

Last year we liaised with a local charity organization (golitos foundation) from Puerto Rico to organize a football training event with kids with special needs during the WCC tournament to raise money for the organization.This is something we will keep doing every year, to see the smile on kid´s faces was priceless.
