PSG: Young Fans Experience Pro Life | Ile-de-France Event

There will be 2,000 of them enjoying an extraordinary experience. Paris Saint-Germain and its partner Snipes (a streetwear brand) are relaunching the Club Tour Snipes, an operation that has become a major event for amateur football in Île-de-France. From this Friday, January 23, amateur clubs in the Ile-de-France region can apply to offer their young licensees a unique immersion in the world of the reigning European champion club.

“Made in PSG” training and a tournament at the Poissy campus

The heart of the system will take place between April 20 and May 1, 2026, with exclusive training sessions organized for more than 1,200 young licensees. Technical workshops inspired by the highest level, discussions with the training center educators and personalized souvenirs, including a PSG training jersey, will punctuate these days.

“It’s a time of proximity which allows us to interact directly with educators and observe young people in their environment,” underlines Yohan Cabaye, sports director of the training and pre-training center, recalling that the interest of clubs is “very strong”, with more than 300 applications submitted in 2025.

The highlight of the program, the Snipes Tour Club Cup will be held on Sunday May 3, 2026 at the Poissy campus. Nearly 600 young players from 24 amateur clubs will compete in an U11 tournament highlighting diversity, fair play and team spirit. An essential dimension for Sabrina Delannoy, assistant women’s sports director at PSG, for whom this program makes it possible to “develop women’s football from the amateur level” and to offer young girls “the same opportunities for inspiration and ambition”.

An event to “create real opportunities”

For SNIPES, title partner of the event, the issue is also social. “Club Tour Snipes aims to open doors and create real opportunities for the new generation,” summarizes its managing director Dennis Schröder. The other objective of this operation aims to “maintain a strong link” between PSG and amateur football in the Ile-de-France region, a major source of talent, by also promoting the work of educators and volunteers.

Reserved for clubs with men’s and women’s sections, the program is aimed at young people aged 11 to 13. Registrations are open until February 13, 2026.
