Eat Right to Play Right

Over 500 young footballers gained more than just footballing experience during the first installment of our ERTPR Youth Cup 2018 held at the Industrial Training Institute of Jitra (ILP Jitra) in Kedah. This inaugural state tournament was organised in line with the new initiatives under our ERTPR integrated community programme.

On 15 and 16 September, we welcomed 40 teams across the northern region of Kedah, Penang, and Perlis to compete in four different categories – the Under 8, Under 10, Under 12, and Under 14. The tournament not only provided a platform for the young talents to showcase their skills but also offered a variety of fun games and activities to educate them on proper nutrition practices and healthy lifestyle habits.

Congratulations to all winning teams! Below are the names of the Top 4 teams from each category.
