The Macron Cup is a premier all-girls pre-season football tournament created to support youth development, female participation, and pathway preparation within a professional and inclusive environment.
Delivered across two full days, the tournament brings together clubs, players, coaches, officials, and families for a high-quality competitive experience ahead of the regular season. The Macron Cup is designed to mirror match-day standards players will experience throughout the year, while fostering respect, teamwork, and enjoyment of the game.
Beyond the current format, the Macron Cup is built with the future in mind.

More than just a tournament, the Macron Cup is about opportunity — providing young athletes with a platform to challenge themselves, build confidence, and prepare for the season ahead, both on and off the field.
