The football tournament in Normandy

The Normandy Football Cup takes place from Friday 14 to Monday 17 May 2027, over the Pentecost (Whitsun) weekend. Friday is for the teams’ arrival, Saturday for the group matches and Sunday for the ranking matches and finals. Monday 17 May, a public holiday in France, is kept free for activities: a Pentecost 2027 football tournament that, for French clubs, means no missed school days.

A football tournament in Normandy combines competition and discovery in an exceptional setting. Between the sea, the Normandy cliffs and the D-Day beaches, your players experience much more than a weekend of matches. The Normandy Football Cup offers your club a trip that is sporting, educational and friendly all at once.

Each team plays 5 guaranteed matches, in 8-a-side football. On Saturday 15 May, the group matches are played over half a day; Sunday 16 May is devoted to the ranking matches and finals. Every match is run by official referees and filmed: coaches can watch the games again and families keep a souvenir of the tournament.

The tournament is open to the U9 to U13 age groups, in 8-a-side football: U9 (born in 2018), U10 (2017), U11 (2016), U12 (2015) and U13 (2014). This youth football tournament is ideal for giving your players the experience of a big tournament with a stay, alongside their teammates and coaches.

No, the competition is open to all levels. Whether your team plays in a local league or at a higher level, Saturday’s group matches followed by Sunday’s ranking matches let it face opponents of a similar level. With 5 guaranteed matches, every team gets real playing time over the weekend, whatever its results.

Yes, 7 meals are included in the 4-day / 3-night stay: 3 breakfasts, from Saturday 15 to Monday 17 May, plus 2 lunches and 2 dinners on Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 May. Coaches therefore don’t have to organise meals during the two competition days.

Yes, shared coach shuttles are available as an option to link the accommodation with the tournament venue, there and back. This saves accompanying adults from making multiple car journeys and simplifies the weekend’s logistics: your players arrive at the pitches together, ready to play.

Every match is run by official referees, to guarantee fair games played according to the rules of 8-a-side football. Throughout the stay, players are accompanied by their club’s coaches and officials. Matches are also filmed, so coaches can analyse performances and families can follow their children.

Yes, parents and accompanying adults can join the stay alongside the team. As packages are priced per person, everyone can choose the accommodation that suits them, in the holiday village or at the hotel. It’s a chance to share a real club football weekend as a family, between matches, the beach and discovering Normandy.

The programme includes free half-days and the whole of Monday 17 May to enjoy the region. At the holiday village, players can relax at the water park and on the nearby beach. Clubs can also discover the Normandy cliffs, ideal for a group outing between two competition days.

Yes, this football tournament near the D-Day beaches lets you visit these historic sites as well as the American Cemetery. The free day on Whit Monday is ideal for this outing, which gives the stay a real educational dimension and leaves young players with a lasting memory, well beyond the pitch.
