The fourth edition of the Coppa Sardegna futsal season concluded with great success, both on the pitch and in the stands. The youth tournament organized by the Quinto Uomo – Futsal in Sardegna association brought the best representatives of the Under-19 and (for the first time in the tournament) Under-17 categories to the PalaBeethoven in Quartu for a week, with six days of matches featuring over 200 young players.
Two clubs emerged victorious: CUS Cagliari in the Under-17 competition, defeating hosts Quartu 4-1, and Monastir in the Under-19 competition, with a 1-0 victory over Elmas . Sixteen teams participated in the two categories, and one day of competition—June 2nd—was also dedicated to children: 150 from all over the island participated in a fun-filled event. The Coppa Sardegna also featured various side activities, including an FC26 tournament, virtual reality with psychologist Fabio Zarra, table football, and—just before Sunday's finals—a 1-on-1 and 2-on-2 contest featuring some of Sardinia's best young players and the girls competing in the Women's Serie C (where, on Sunday, Quartu secured promotion by winning the national playoffs).
"We can only be satisfied with how the event went," said Marco Tidu, president of the Quinto Uomo – Futsal in Sardegna association, which organized the event along with the board of directors, composed of Alessandro Vargiu, Guido Rigoni, and Mattia Secchi, and the staff. At the end of the Coppa Sardegna, numerous individual awards were also presented, in addition to team awards : for the Under-17 team, best player Manuel Mascia (Quartu), best goalkeeper Pietro Sarigu (Cus Cagliari), and best coach Davide Erriu (Cus Cagliari). For the Under-19 team, best player Jaime Loporto (Elmas), best goalkeeper Manuel Muscas (Monastir), and best coaches Maxi Pérez (Monastir) and Ivan Paderi (Elmas).
