Last updated: 23.06.2001Balkan Teams In The 2nd UEFA Regions' Cup 2001:
Intro: The UEFA Regions' Cup is a competition for AMATEUR players only. It is open for all UEFA 51 members and is held on biannual basis. Most of the teams representing the countries are composed of players from one part of the country and the idea is each edition a team from a different part of the country to compete. However this is not a mandatory condition. Also some countries' teams represent the whole country. It must be noted that the initial idea of such competition came from a Balkan state, namely from the Bulgarian Amatuer Football League.
