From Ghana to Denmark
Football has the power to inspire, educate and bring people together across borders. That is exactly what Tema International Soccer School in Ghana is doing every day.
Tema International Soccer School began its Dana Cup journey in 2025, choosing the tournament as an important part of the development pathway for its young players.
More than just a football academy, Tema is a football community dedicated to expanding people’s understanding of excellence through the game, helping young athletes grow both on and off the pitch.
After a memorable first experience in Denmark in 2025 and 2026, the club is now preparing to return for the Dana Cup 2027 with two teams competing in Boys 15 and Boys 12.
For many of the players who travelled to Hjørring in 2025 and 2026, the Dana Cup was much more than football. It was an opportunity to experience new cultures, build friendships with players from around the world, and challenge themselves against international opposition.
Now, a new generation of players is looking forward to making the journey for the very first time, inspired by the stories and experiences shared by those who came before them.
As Tema International Soccer School continues to shine in Ghana, we are proud to be part of their development journey and excited to welcome them back to Dana Cup 2027.
Hear directly from returning players and first-time participants as they share what Dana Cup means to them and why they cannot wait to be a part of one of the world's most international youth football tournament next summer.
