The First Edition of the Nexperia Novio Talent Cup was an Outstanding Success
Nexperia Novio Talent Cup
It was a showdown between Fulham FC and Feyenoord Rotterdam, and the Dutch team became champions and took home the trophy.
Teams from all over the world – 16, from 11 countries and 4 continents – showed their skills in Nijmegen.
It looked like a worldwide soccer festival, with each team bringing its flair to the game.
The tournament was not only about the games but also about spotting the next big talent.
And let me tell you, there were some real gems on display. The clubs showed excitement and the competition was fierce.
THE TEAMWORK WAS PAYING OFF!
The first Nexperia Novio Talent Cup was a great success and proved that when you combine talent, teamwork, and a whole lot of passion, you get football magic!

The oldest city in the Netherlands
City of Nijmegen
Nijmegen is the oldest city in the Netherlands. Right at the start of our era, Nijmegen was founded by the Romans as an important base because of its strategic location. Around 100 AD the Romans had put an entire city called Ulpia Noviomagus Batavorum on the map and Nijmegen was granted city and market rights by Emperor Trajan.
Nijmegen celebrated its 2000th year of existence in 2005. It is considered the oldest city in the Netherlands. In gaining this qualification, it has competed with the city of Maastricht.
The city of Nijmegen is exciting and interesting and has a turbulent history. You can find evidence of past times everywhere, in old buildings and the city’s architecture.
N.E.C Nijmegen
N.E.C. was founded by laborers in 1900. The Goffert Stadium has existed since the late thirties, after establishing the whole park as an employment project of the Municipality of Nijmegen and the Ministry of Social Affairs. In 2000, the current stadium was built inside the old stadium. As a consequence, the number of seats is around N.E.C. 12,500.
