Football Club and Academy in Taipei

What we do

Saturday Football International (SFI) is a Football Club and a Youth Football Academy program.

Currently SFI is developing a team to qualify for the Taiwan Premier League in 2021. We're preparing the club to apply for an AFC Club License and participate in international competitions.

SFI's Youth Development Program (YDP) is an integral part of our club. We have 120 players registered in our YDP. We provide football training for all age groups, from U6 to U19.

In the younger age groups we will teach our players the basic foundations of football. This program offers technical training, as well as participation in local tournaments.

In our older age groups (U15, U17) we prepare our players for semi-professional and professional football.

For this process our Club established a set of values. We have a set of ideas on which we can all agree. These values are necessary to maintain consistency.

These principles are simple but they provide a powerful source of energy for the Club.


SFI Values:
  • We play attacking football
  • We want to possess the ball
  • We defend on a high defensive line
  • We don’t take risks in defense
  • We use all the space
  • We pressure to recover the ball fast  

The foundation of these values is to play beautiful football.
