ABOUT
Until the late 1970s and early 1980s, many National Football Associations around the world also had a SENIOR AMATEUR NATIONAL TEAM or B-NATIONAL TEAM in addition to the SENIOR A-NATIONAL TEAM. Reason for us to create a Renaissance and Rebirth of and for AMATEUR NATIONAL TEAMS FORMAT after more then 40 years and to re-establish them through Nations Cup Tournaments with International participating Nations from all Confederations.
BEST STAGE FOR SECRET HEROES AND TOP AMATEUR PLAYERS.
PRO FEEDBACKS
Josef Hickersberger
(AUT)

The rebirth of an Amateur National Team is a great initiative. A great opportunity for today's top amateur players to step into the spotlight or even get a professional contract.
Bojan Prasnikar

Former Slovenian Football Player and Coach 3 times A-National Team Slovenia and many Club teams in Slovenia and Germany
Ideal football format and platform to build a sporting bridge between the best Amateur and Professional Football and to create a stage for top Amateur players.
Stefan Maierhofer
(AUT)
Former Austrian Football Player who even made the jump to FC Bayern Munich's PRO team via the Amateur route and way
Cool thing and amazing what the initiators are reviving and an ideal showcase for amateur players from the highest Semi-Pro and Amateur Leagues.
