CHINA: Yingli Green Energy Holding Co. Ltd has once again teamed up with FC Bayern Munchen, the most successful German football club, to bring underprivileged football talents to the FCB Youth Cup final in June 2013 at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.
The Youth Cup is an international charity youth competition initiated by the FCB with support from several sponsors around the world such as Yingli Green Energy, adidas, Audi and Lufthansa.
This year Yingli Green Energy not only gives young soccer players from disadvantaged areas of China the opportunity to play in the FCB Youth Cup, but expands its engagement and will also host this outstanding tournament in Japan where talented 14 to16-year old boys from the three tsunami affected prefectures can show their football skills.
Yingli Green Energy joined hands once again with the FCB and the Chinese Football Association to scout the best junior footballers from underprivileged areas of China for the tournament final in Germany. Young football players from all across China will be selected in Qingyuan football training base of Guangdong from February 17 to February 23, 2013.
At the end of this competition in Qingyuan, ten young talents will be selected to form an All-Star team of 10 players and travel to Germany to represent China at the final held in June 2013 at the Allianz Arena stadium in Munich – home of the FCB. Other FCB Youth Cup teams that will compete for the cup are from Brazil, Japan, Germany, Italy, Austria and India.
The selection competition in Japan is planned for April with young football players from Fukushima, Miyagi and Iwate, whose lives were changed by the tsunami and its aftermath in March 2011. Ten selected football talents will also join the international final in Germany.
