[1] Every year, 2.5 million children from over 34,000 schools and 11,000 clubs from around the globe take part in local, regional and then national Danone Nations Cup competitions, before the winners fly off to compete in the grand World Final.

For 10 years, the tournament has had Zinédine Zidane as its ambassador, benefiting from his commitment to high quality football and fair play.

Following the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, Danone decided to create an international football tournament for kids.

Danone Nations Cup World Final was in France (Paris or Lyon) until 2009.

For the 14th edition, the thirty - two winning national teams headed to the legendary Wembley Stadium in London.
