In more than 40 cities of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Open Fun Football Schools (OFFS) inspired more than 3.200 boys and girls and brought them together to play football. For the village Veliki Radić, a dream came true, as Anders Levinson, founder of the project, learned from Mr. Svetozar Pudarić, Vice president of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the small and poor returnee village, at the slopes of Grmeč Mountain, a region where life is truly hard, couple of dozen children were always dreaming of playing football with a real football and real goals. So far, these kids went to join the OFFS in Bosanska Krupa but the desire to continue playing never stopped when they were back home. This season a dream came true. Old, wooden and broken goals were replaced by new ones.

The Trophy Tour arrived with great fan fare to the Red Square in Moscow, spending 3 days there as a main attraction of this very historical place and drawing in 23.035 visitors from Sept 23-25.

One trophy. Thirty-three days on the road. Twenty-two stops in five countries. Thousands of excited fans. A hugely sucessful road-show event series has come to an end. The UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour presented by UniCredit had Munich, Prague, Warsaw, Bratislava and Vienna under its spell over the past weeks.
It was every fan’s once-in-a-lifetime chance to get really close to the icon of European club football, and to get an idea of what it must feel like to lift the trophy. With the closing event in Vienna on 17 October, the shiny object of desire has left the public stage again. Europe’s football lovers will now have to wait until 28 May for its re-appearance – at the UEFA Champions League Final in London’s legendary Wembley stadium! It remains to be seen which two teams will make it into that decisive match and which one will take home the trophy to their fans in their city.  So, it’s all up to Europe’s top clubs now to decide which city gets to celebrate the trophy in May.
For a glance at how fans in the five Trophy Tour host countries welcomed it, visit our photo/video gallery, and our YouTube channel. We will be uploading more tour material in the upcoming days.
Thanks to all of you who came to see the trophy. We hope you had a fantastic time!
