The second edition of the Copa de Campeones “Carnaval de Goles–Gobierno de Jujuy” will conclude on April 11 with finals held at the La Tablada stadium. The event will feature the sub-16 final between Defensores de Belgrano and Defensores de Yuto, starting at 10 a.m.

The tournament is organized by the Government of Jujuy through its Sports Secretariat, in collaboration with the Federación Jujeña de Fútbol and six affiliated leagues: Puneña, Quebradeña, Jujeña, Departamental, del Ramal, and Regional Jujeña. The competition aims to reward last season’s champions in sub-14 and sub-16 categories from their respective leagues.

Luis Calvetti, Secretary of Sports for Jujuy, said: “El certamen es un premio a los ganadores de las categorías sub 14 y sub 16 de la temporada pasada en sus respectivas ligas. Con mucho esfuerzo logramos desarrollar este petit torneo.” Calvetti also highlighted the social impact of the tournament: “Más allá de lo deportivo, tiene un fuerte componente social, ya que los chicos jugaron en distintos escenarios, cubriendo las cuatro regiones principales de la provincia: Puna, Quebrada, Valles y Yungas.”

He added that this broad reach was intentional: “No es casualidad, ya que el gobernador Carlos Sadir impulsa permanentemente el trabajo en territorio y a lo largo y ancho de la provincia. Fue una competencia muy federal y los resultados están a la vista, con una final que enfrenta a un equipo de Tilcara con otro de Yuto.” Calvetti also acknowledged support from other government bodies: “Esto no sería posible sin el constante acompañamiento del ministro de Gobierno, Justicia, Derechos Humanos y Trabajo, Normando Álvarez García; como así también del Same y la Policía que ponen todo a disposición para el resguardo de nuestros niños.”

Following the sub-16 match between Defensores de Belgrano (Liga Quebradeña) and Defensores de Yuto (Liga Regional Jujeña), the sub-14 final will take place at 11:30 a.m., featuring Atlético Talleres from Perico (Liga Jujeña) against Atlético San Pedro (Liga del Ramal). An award ceremony for champions will close out the day.

The tournament reflects ongoing efforts to promote youth sports across all regions of Jujuy province.
