With the participation of eight educational institutions and the objective of promoting healthy coexistence through sports, the second edition of the "Youth for Peace" collegiate soccer tournament was officially presented. The event, organized by Culiacán Participa, will feature TROPHEO as its official platform, a tool that will track information, statistics, and results of the competition. During a press conference led by Javier Llausás, president of Culiacán Participa, the draw was also held to define the composition of the two groups that will contest this new edition.

The distribution was established as follows: in Group A, UAdeO, the current defending champions of the tournament, Tecnológico de Culiacán, Escuela Libre de Derecho, and Tecnológico de Monterrey will compete; while Group B will be made up of the Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa (UAS), Tec Milenio, Universidad Tecnológica de Culiacán, and Defensa Nacional. In this way, the eight institutions will seek to make their way in a competition that will have as a precedent the championship won by UAdeO in its first edition, so the university team will arrive with the responsibility of defending their crown.

The second edition will have its opening ceremony next Thursday, November 19, at the Estadio Universitario, where a program with music, dance, cultural activities, and social spaces is being prepared. During the presentation, Luis Buelna, technical director of the Águilas UAS, highlighted that the tournament represents much more than a soccer competition, as it also allows universities to contribute to the development of young people and foster a culture of peace. With TROPHEO as the official platform, the tournament will seek to strengthen its sports tracking and give greater visibility to the participating teams.
