“It’s an opportunity, for all involved, to experience new cultures and establish or strengthen friendships,” says Canada Soccer President Victor Montagliani. “We encourage participants to take advantage of this occasion, learn about their host region, and play to the best of their ability, while embodying the ideals of fair play, integrity and sportsmanship.”
