About the Amsterdam Games

Before we started the Amsterdam Games we used to organize Copa Amsterdam in the Olympic Stadium during Whitsun for 11 years. Copa Amsterdam was the best Under 19 tournament in the world with participants like Real Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, Juventus, Borussia Dortmund, Tottenham Hotspur, Olympique Marseille, Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray, Olympiacos, Sporting Lissabon, Ajax, PSV, AZ and many, many more. For example from Brazil (Fluminense, Cruzeiro, Botafogo en Atletico Mineiro), Mexico (Chivas Guadalajara) and South-Africa (Ajax Cape Town).

The intention of the Amsterdam Games is to bring teams and athletes from all over the world in all different kinds of sports together in Amsterdam.
