BFA International Trips & Events 2026
2026 is shaping up to be our most exciting year yet. BFA players will be representing Lebanon on football pitches across Europe and the Gulf — and registrations are now open!
Why International Trips Matter
International football trips are one of the most transformative experiences a young player can have. Competing against teams from around the world builds confidence, expands football horizons, and creates memories that last a lifetime. At BFA, we have been sending Lebanese youth to international tournaments for years — and the results speak for themselves.
