The great youth football tournament of the Easter holidays in the Marche region
When the Easter holidays arrive, an event that is now part of the town's sporting identity is renewed in Filottrano (province of Ancona, Marche): the Easter Tournament – City of Filottrano. Organized with care and precision by U.S. Filottranese 1922, the home football club, the tournament is dedicated to youth football and particularly to the Under-13 category. In 2026, the event reached its 23rd edition, confirming itself as one of the longest-running and most anticipated events in the regional scene.
The heart of the event is the San Giobbe Sports Field, the historic home of U.S. Filottranese 1922. For five days, the field hosts an intense schedule of matches, from the group stages to the semi-finals and finals. The stands of San Giobbe fill with a warm audience: parents, grandparents, fans, and enthusiasts who accompany the young footballers in a festive atmosphere, where the result matters less than team spirit and the joy of playing.
The format includes the participation of sixteen teams, all in the same category, from Filottrano and many other locations in the Marche region. Over the years, clubs such as Ancona, Tolentino, Giovane Ancona, Aurora Jesi, Maceratese, Recanatese, Moie Vallesina, Vigor Castelfidardo, Vigor Senigallia, Treiese, Salesiana Vigor, Castelplanio, Monserra, and Filottranese itself have enlivened the tournament. The tournament represents an important showcase for young local talents and a moment of comparison between the youth academies of the main football clubs in the Marche region.
The Easter Tournament – City of Filottrano is much more than a sports competition: it is a community event that fills the holiday days with great plays, fair play, and fun. For the town of Filottrano, it is an occasion for hospitality and promotion, capable of attracting families and young athletes from all over the province of Ancona and beyond to San Giobbe. An event that combines tradition, sport, and social interaction in the spirit of football played by the youngest.
From April 2 to 6, 2026, the San Giobbe Field in Filottrano hosted the 23rd edition of the Easter Tournament – City of Filottrano, dedicated to the Under-13 2013 category. Sixteen teams battled it out in a festive and fair-play atmosphere, welcomed by a large and enthusiastic crowd.
Ancona emerged victorious, defeating Tolentino in the final. Among the participants were Aurora Jesi, Giovane Ancona, Maceratese, Recanatese, Moie, Vigor Castelfidardo, Vigor Senigallia, Castelfidardo 1944 Academy, Castelplanio, Monserra, Palombina, Salesiana Vigor, Treiese, and the host team Filottranese.
