The second stage of multi-stage competitions — territorial community championships — has now begun. Starting in spring 2026, school teams will participate in district, regional, and national finals.

The all-Ukrainian "School Ball" tournament is currently increasing the massiveness of children's football in Ukraine: last season, after their revival, about 1,000 teams participated, while for the 2025/2026 season — approximately 3,000 (about 50,000 children).
