Future Champions Take the Field with Euro 2004 Icon Kostas Katsouranis and Get Rewarded with Panini Trading Cards at 2025 Navarino Challenge

For another year, the 5×5 Football Field at The Westin Resort Costa Navarino became the ultimate training ground for young football fans, as kids aged 5 to 17 took part in a one-of-a-kind clinic led by Euro 2004 legend Kostas Katsouranis.

The Football Clinics delivered an unforgettable experience. With Katsouranis at the helm, the young players learned essential skills, from ball control and passing to teamwork and game IQ, all while gaining insights from one of Greece’s most celebrated players.

But the excitement didn’t stop there…

Each child who participated received soccer trading card repacks curated by Trace ‘n Chase, featuring official Panini America trading cards. These unique packs added a whole new layer of fun, connecting the joy of playing with the thrill of collecting, all while helping kids take a piece of the game home with them.

Katsouranis, a key figure in Greece’s historic UEFA Euro 2004 triumph, shared not only techniques but also inspiring words about discipline, passion, and dreaming big. His presence turned a simple clinic into a truly legendary encounter.

The event was part of the celebrated Navarino Challenge, a weekend full of sports, wellness, and community spirit, while the football clinic reflected a shared commitment to excellence — both on and off the field.

From elite mentorship to collector’s magic, this was a day young footballers will never forget!
