FC Barcelona player Dani Olmo was the honored ambassador during the MICFootball presentation event held this Tuesday at CosmoCaixa.

Olmo recalled his experience at MICFootball, a tournament he played three times (2010, 2012, and 2014)… and which he wasn’t fortunate enough to win.

“The best memory isn’t the photo with the trophy because I didn’t win any. But the U12 final in Palamós against Atlético was special. I scored a goal, but we lost 4-2. The experience leaves a lasting mark on you. These are the tournaments everyone wants to play in, participate in, and win. These are tournaments you pay attention to when you’re young. And it’s an experience that leaves a lasting mark on you.”

 

MICFootball continues its commitment to innovation and accessibility in youth football with a new strategic agreement with E+, which becomes the official Media Partner of the tournament. Thanks to this alliance, some sports facilities in the province of Girona where MICFootball is played will be digitized with automated Artificial Intelligence (AI) cameras, allowing live broadcast of the matches through MICFootball TV, an exclusive space within the E+ platform, managed by ATM MEDIA.

In total, 10 cameras will be installed at different tournament venues, including Lloret de Mar, Sant Feliu de Guíxols – Vilartagues, Vidreres, Roses, Caldes de Malavella, Begur, Pals, L’Escala and Torroella de Montgrí. This digital transformation ensures that all matches played in these fields can be followed live, reinforcing MICFootball’s position as a benchmark in the digitization of grassroots football.

The tournament will have an exclusive channel on E+, the leading platform for broadcasting semi-professional and amateur sports, called MICFootball TV, which will allow players, coaches, families and fans to enjoy every moment of the competition from anywhere in the world and for free.

Another aspect that MICFootball seeks to enhance with the digitalization of its tournament is the sporting legacy of grassroots football, especially local and regional sports. This transformation not only improves the accessibility and visibility of the tournament globally, but also helps to promote the dissemination and recognition of the municipalities of Girona.

According to Maite Colomer, director of MICFootball, “the commitment we make has a clear long-term objective: to be able to offer the more than 1,000 matches of the tournament live. With MICFootball TV we will be able to increase the loyalty of our users, grouping all the broadcasts on a single channel. We firmly believe in digitalization to continue to believe strongly in digitalization”.

According to Matteo Samaranch, Business Director of ATM MEDIA, “this agreement propels MIC into the future, thanks to the integration of Artificial Intelligence in sports broadcasting. We are excited to collaborate with MICFootball to offer an unparalleled viewing experience, benefiting players, coaches, families and fans.”

This agreement reinforces MICFootball’s vision to continue being one of the best grassroots football tournaments in the world. In addition to ensuring comprehensive coverage of the event, its digitalization will boost the development of football talent and provide greater visibility for young players. With this alliance, MICFootball reaffirms its commitment to innovation and excellence in the organization of grassroots football tournaments.

The official ball with which MICFootball will be played on the Costa Brava has been confirmed. 

It will be the third edition of MICFootball that will feature a PUMA ball, consolidating a link that was born in 2023 between the sportswear brand and the largest grassroots football tournament in the world. 

ORBITA 5 FUSION: an innovative design inspired by the Costa Brava  

If the 2023 and 2024 editions, the MICFootball ball was dyed yellow to represent the typical sun of Catalonia, this 2025 the ball has changed its focus. PUMA has chosen a dark blue to remind us of the Mediterranean Sea, as characteristic for the tournament as for the Costa Brava.  

The PUMA ORBITA 5 FUSION ball stands out for its qualities during the game. It has been designed to ensure durability, shape consistency and reduced water absorption. All this is made possible by an innovative hybrid lacing method. With 32 identical surface panels and a multi-foam backing exterior, the PUMA ORBITA 5 FUSION is a ball that ensures a soft, powerful touch and excellent flight characteristics. 

But the color and design are not the only novelties of the 2025 edition ball. The PUMA ORBITA 5 FUSION will be the first PUMA customized ball of the tournament. Featuring one of its 32 panels, the MICFootball logo will ensure a truly professional experience. 

The new PUMA ORBITA 5 FUSION ball is just around the corner on the Costa Brava. Are you ready to play?
