This Wednesday, 8/19 at 7 p.m., all the official details of the tenth edition of the International Children’s Tournament organized by Club Atlético Unión will be unveiled. The event will take place from September 3 to 6.
The tournament, open to boys’ categories 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, as well as girls’ U12 and U14 divisions, will mainly be held at the CIFFU grounds and the Nery Pumpido complex, two iconic venues for Unión’s youth academy and the wider region. The grand final, as every year, will be played at the 15 de Abril Stadium, a dream setting for the young footballers, who will have the chance to play on the same field where the red-and-white first team competes every weekend.
The Diego Barisone Children’s Tournament has already earned its place among the most important sporting events in the region. Every September, Santa Fe becomes the epicenter of grassroots football, with boys and girls who enjoy, compete, and pay tribute to a player who won everyone’s affection. The ninth edition promises, once again, to be a tribute full of life and future.
The tournament was created as a tribute to Diego Barisone, a defender who came through Unión’s youth divisions and left an unforgettable mark on the club and on Argentine football. His tragic death in July 2015, the result of a car accident on the Rosario-Santa Fe highway near Coronda, shocked the entire sporting community. Since then, Unión has chosen to keep his legacy alive with a tournament that bears his name and that, year after year, continues to grow in participation and prestige.
