Dana Cup in Mexico and Costa Rica

Dana Cup 2015 must once again offer fantastic Latin American football. The tournament in Hjørring has a tradition of showcasing some very exciting teams from Mexico and other Central and South American nations. These nations excite both opponents and the many fans who gather on the side line to enjoy their special style of football.

Over the years the Dana Cup has welcomed a significant number of teams from Mexico and Costa Rica - two nations that are famous for a very entertaining and exotic style of play. These two nations will be receiving a visit in January to secure agreements of participation at the Dana Cup 2015 and in the years to come.

- Between the 20th and the 25th of January, Patricia has organized visits with some of the top clubs in Mexico and the Mexican Football Association. At the same time, with assistance from the Danish Embassy in Mexico City, we have the opportunity to expand the knowledge of the Dana Cup in a large Mexican forum, says Dana Cup's Marketing Manager - Alison Leigh Forman who is finalizing the promotion tour together with the Dana Cup's Director - Jette Andersen.
