Bushido Warriors FC will host the Bushido Warriors Kin Town Cup 2026, an international futsal tournament bringing together U.S. military teams and local Okinawan clubs for a day of competitive soccer, cultural exchange, and community engagement. The tournament will take place in Kin Town, Okinawa on March 15, welcoming teams and spectators from across the island.

The event will feature eight teams competing in a fast-paced 6v6 futsal format, highlighting both the skill and sportsmanship of players from the U.S. military community and local Okinawan football clubs. Participating teams include organizations representing both communities, reinforcing the long-standing relationship between Okinawa and the U.S. service members stationed on the island.

The tournament is organized by Bushido Warriors FC, a Camp Hansen-based soccer club known for promoting teamwork, discipline, and international friendship through sport. The event aims to create a competitive yet welcoming environment where players and supporters can connect beyond the field.

Matches will run throughout the day with a structured schedule beginning with a short opening ceremony followed by tournament play. The venue will host games across two fields, culminating in a championship match to determine the Kin Town Cup Champion.

“This tournament is about more than just soccer,” said Paul Echeverria, organizer and coach of Bushido Warriors FC. “It’s about bringing the military community and Okinawan teams together, building friendships, and celebrating the game we all love.”

Spectators from the local community and military installations are encouraged to attend and support the teams. The event will showcase competitive futsal, teamwork, and the spirit of international sportsmanship that makes Okinawa’s soccer community unique. Event Details
