Welcome to Gothia Cup 2013
With this brochure we hope to give you as much
information as possible about the Gothia Cup
and what it stands for. We want to describe to you
how the tournament is built and what you can expect
from a Gothia Cup week. We want to do it as informatively
as possible. Because going to the Gothia Cup is
a major decision to take. For many youth and leaders
it might be one of the greatest sport adventures in life
and therefore it is important to be prepared.
On our web site www.gothiacup.se you can find
further information about the Gothia Cup and the routines
on a participation. Here you also find the latest
news from the tournament.
The Gothia Cup was arranged for the first time in
1975 and today it is, not only the biggest, but most
certainly also the most well known youth football
tournament in the world. Naturally we are very proud
but at the same time we know that it makes heavy
demands on us to make an even better tournament.
Only satisfied and happy guests will enable us to
keep our position as world leading. The Gothia Cup
is meant to be a meeting place for youth from all over
the world. The football is the common denominator
and the language that everybody understands. Regardless
if you come here to win the tournament or
just to have fun playing football, you are welcome.
Regardless if you come from Zambia, Norway, Laos
or Brazil, you are welcome. It is the mixture of teams
and participants from all over the world that with their
different purposes make the Gothia Cup an absolutely
unique tournament.

OPENING
CEREMONY
The Gothia Cup Opening Ceremony has during
the years developed into something that the
guests appreciate more than anything. From the
beginning the opening ceremony took place in different
places in central Gothenburg, where all the
teams marched behind their nation’s flag. Along
with the continuos growth of the tournament, this
became impossible to arrange. That is why the
opening ceremony in 1989 was moved to Nya Ullevi.
At first just half of the arena was being used.
Today there is hardly enough place in the whole
arena, this in spite of over 50 000 seats.
The opening ceremony is a close to two hours long
show. The presentation of the participating nations
is the standing feature of the show, but usually there
are other performances that attract more attention.
It isn’t easy to describe the opening ceremony just
in words. Music, song, dancing, fireworks, feeling
and lots of joy are the ingredients. For us it is all
about mixing and composing these ingredients in
the best way possible. And judging from the spectators’
reaction we usually manage quite well.

D uring
the first couple of years this event took place
in a hall at Liseberg – Rondo. It certainly wasn’t
much of a leaders party. There was food and beverage
but the entertainment consisted of dull speeches and
to that information about the upcoming week.
It wasn’t really until the end of the 80s that it became
a real party event. The youth had their disco. Of course
the leaders, that put so much effort in coming with the
team to the Gothia Cup, should be offered something
at least as good. During many years Fiskhamnen (the
fish port) in Gothenburg was the meeting place. Seated
on shrimp boxes the guests were offered seafood
and music. The arrangement was much appreciated
but soon the capacity in Fiskhamnen was no longer
enough.
After that the party moved every year to new places.
The aim was to show as much as possible of the city.
Eriksbergshallen, Marstrands Fästning, Frölundaborg
and Älvsborgs Fästning are some of the places that
have been visited.

Gothia Leaders Party
From 1999 until today the big indoor arena - Scandinavium
- is the given place for the Gothia Leaders
Party. Here is enough space on the floor to seat
3800 guests. Well, at least close enough. Latecomers
sometimes have to sit on the gallery.
A leaders party consists of good
food and entertainment. And
there is usually a good at-
mosphere. Later in the
evening most of the
guests are standing up
and singing along. Here
the leaders meet on a
different plane and can
feel the community and joy
alongside the football. All you
leaders together play a crucial role
in this big, international meeting
that the Gothia Cup is.

Gothia Disco
a less fancy school dance in a shabby gymnasium
to one of the world’s greatest discos in one of
Europe’s biggest indoor gymnasium. That is how the
development of the Gothia Disco could be described.
Svenska Mässan is where thousands of participants
end up in the evenings during the tournament. This is
where the Gothia Disco is held and where you meet and
hang out with your friends, and off course, dance. The
music is loud, the base is pulsing in your head and chest
and nobody over 20 years old could really understand
that delight. But the youth are comfortable and happy
to be in a crowd with 4 000 like minded, so who can
oppose.
The popularity leads to queuing some nights at the
end of the week. So make sure to be there in good time.

the week goes by and if you are still in the tournament
competition, closer comes The Big Final.
But first, let’s clarify that all teams are playing some
kind of Play Off. The two first placed teams in the group
advance to the A-Play Off, the other two to the B-Play
Off.
Depending on how many teams there are in the age
category, you might end up playing nearly ten matches
before you reach it all the way through.
The finals are being played on Friday and Saturday.
The principle is that the age categories with least number
of teams, play their finals first.
Many of the teams that don’t reach the finals come
to the stadium to see the final in their age category. It
gives a hint about how your team would have asserted
itself in the competition and it also is a nice closure of
the teams’s Gothia Cup adventure.

Källström Trophy is the class that gives youngsters
with developmental disabilities the opportunity
to participate in the world’s largest by GOTHIA youth CUP football
tournament. To get to play against teams from other
countries is a experience, and we guarantee you an
unforgettable adventure with exciting meetings. Both
on and off the field. Kim Källström and Gothia Cup invites
to summer’s big climax, sign up today!
Kim Källström Trophy has its own regulations and tournament information. You can find
these and much more information about Kim Källtröm Trophy at Gothia Cup’s homepage!
“ During my years as a professional footballer, I have had the opportunity to
meet and inspire many children and young people active in football. Now I
want to share my passion with many more.
To give a chance to children and adolescents with developmental disabilities
is something I’ve wanted to do for years. Who has inspired me for this
is my grandmother who worked with children and adolescents with developmental
disabilities for a long time. My wish is that as many people as possible
get the chance to share the fellowship and joy that football offers. Taking
part in the world’s largest youth tournament in football, the Gothia Cup, is a
memory for life.
I am proud of all the participants who helped to spread true football happiness
in Kim Källström Trophy, which was something I wanted to see since I
started the tournament . I look forward to the third edition of this category and
hope more teams from more nations can participate 2013. I want to see you
and your team in Gothenburg in the summer!

The summer city
Gothenburg is one of the most popular summer towns
in Sweden. The proximity to the harbor and the sea
is what most people refer to the most important factors for
the city’s popularity. Others appreciate the great small town
where everything feels close. Not to forget the typical Gothenburg
humor.
The Gothenburg tourism is constantly in development and
can already compete with other cities, thanks to its great selection.
The city is one of the leading event cities in Europe
and offers a wide selection of culture, entertainment and
sports events. The citizens of Gothenburg are used to happenings
and therefore also used to taking care of their visitors.
You will certainly feel welcome, that you can be sure of.
Gothenburg might even be the most international city in
the world, not least because of the cultural and multilingual
football festival that every summer is presented at the Gothia
Cup.

We are proud of having Europe’s foremost
amusement park here in Gothenburg –
Liseberg. Investigations have shown that 98 % of
all Gothia Cup participants do visit the park during
the week. Many of them even more than once.
Liseberg is also one of the biggest meeting places.
The park is filled with youth in colorful training
suits and many contacts are being made.
Liseberg amusement park offers free admission
to anyone with Gothia Card, and you are also
offered to purchase an affordable Ride Pass.

Gothia Cup in the world
The Gothia Cup shall be a meeting place for youth
from all over the world. This was established already
in the very first years.
Every year the tournament helps teams and players
with poor living conditions to come to Gothenburg
and the Gothia Cup. But what can you do when that
simply isn’t enough? When the dream about playing
football is so much bigger than what an organization
like the Gothia Cup is able to satisfy? The answer
was: - We’ll have to move the Gothia Cup to places
where it’s needed!
In 1995 the Gothia Cup Village in Ouagadougou in
Burkina Faso was inaugurated. The facility consists
of a club house and three football pitches in one of
the poorest regions of the world. Hundreds of boys
and girls got the chance to meet, hang out and play
football.
A couple of years later a co-operation with Svenska
Missionskyrkan (The Mission Covenant Church
of Sweden) led to the set up of another school. This
time in Congo-Brazzaville. The commitment grew
and pretty soon it comprised another two places in
the city.
From 2009 the Gothia Cup is also supporting the
construction and the start up of another facility in the
neighbouring country Congo-Kinshasa.
A part of the surplus in the Gothia Cup is every
year used to help vulnerable children and youth from
different parts of the world. In other words, as a participant
of the Gothia Cup you play an important part
in making the world a fairer place.
In the world

N o
other youth tournament in the world can compete
with the Gothia Cup when it comes to international
participation. More than 50 % of the teams
come from abroad. This means that approximately 800
teams travel from other countries to Sweden and Gothenburg
to take part in the Gothia Cup. This is something
we can be very proud of and it also puts an exclusive
World Youth Cup
stamp on the tournament. A normal year nearly 70 nations
take part.
Most of the foreign countries come from Norway,
USA, England, Germany and – Brazil. Other major participating
countries are Iceland and India!
The Gothia Cup truly is The World Youth Cup.
Meet The World
T he
Gothia Cup is very proud of having SKF as
main sponsor. SKF is a genuine Gothenburg
company with activity all over the world. The Gothia
Cup and SKF in many respects share the same values.
This has led to the establishment of tournaments
worldwide that go under the name Meet the World.
Every year SKF and the Gothia Cup arrange 15-20
tournaments for boys and girls from different coun-
tries. Preferably in countries that do not have funds to
arrange tournaments or to travel. The winning teams
in each of these tournaments get free travel to and
free accommodation at the Gothia Cup.
This way a dream can come true for hundreds of
youth every year.
