History
Brondby Cup's history stretches back to 1979, when Brøndby IF for the first time held a major international youth tournament. At that time the tournament's name was Copenhagen Cup.
The tournament has always been held in the summer and the idea for the tournament was the desire to create a tournament, where teams from all over the world meet up for a tournament in which both the sporting and social go hand in hand. Even if we play by the same rules in all countries, we have much to learn from each other about how football should be played and you get the opportunity to experience and discuss in an international atmosphere.
Over the years we have amongst others welcomed teams from the following countries:
Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Greenland, England, Germany, France, Poland, Turkey, Spain, Russia, Armenia, Romania, USA, Uruguay and, of course Denmark.
Over the years, the Copenhagen Cup and later Brondby Cup were settled exclusively by volunteers. Many use a week of their summer vacation to make the tournament a success for both teams and their parents and for Brøndby IF.
