Lemnian Youth Event: The Hellenic Cup 2026

On Saturday, 4 October 2026, the Lemnian Youth NSW proudly hosted the inaugural Hellenic Cup Greek Youth Soccer Gala Day at Peakhurst Park, bringing together 15 teams representing Greek youth associations and communities from across Sydney.

With approximately 300 players, supporters and spectators in attendance, the day was filled with friendly competition, energy and plenty of Greek community spirit.

Throughout the day, teams competed in an exciting six-a-side football tournament, showcasing their talent, teamwork and passion for the game. Off the field, attendees enjoyed a BBQ and sausage sizzle, alongside music and refreshments, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere for everyone involved.

After an action-packed day of football, Kos United were crowned the inaugural Hellenic Cup champions, with Sydney Kalymnos United FC finishing as runners-up.

The Hellenic Cup was established with the aim of bringing Greek youth associations together through sport, strengthening connections between communities and creating opportunities for young Greek Australians to connect, compete and celebrate their shared heritage.

Lemnian Youth NSW would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all participating teams, players, supporters, volunteers and everyone who contributed to making the day such a success.

We look forward to welcoming everyone back for another Hellenic Cup next year!!!
