Bola.com, Kudus – MilkLife Soccer Challenge All Stars 2026 is more than a competition to find a champion from the 12 competing teams. It is also the moment for Jacksen F. Tiago and Timo Scheunemann to choose the 34 players who will play at Singa Cup 2026.
The MilkLife Soccer Challenge All Stars 2026 produced All Stars Kudus as champions. The side coached by Yayat Hidayat lifted the trophy for the second year running, having also won the 2025 edition.
Besides Kudus beating Jakarta on penalties in the final, the MilkLife Soccer Challenge All Stars, initiated by Bakti Olahraga Djarum Foundation together with MilkLife, also announced the 34 players who will play at Singa Cup 2026.
MilkLife Soccer Challenge Head Coach Jacksen F. Tiago said the talent-scouting process focuses not only on individual talent but also on understanding of the game and decision-making on the pitch. Although still at primary-school level, the players were able to play with confidence and show maturity beyond their age group, which he said is an important foundation for building a team to compete internationally.
We are looking for players with potential in football intelligence. They must be able to adapt quickly to changes in the pattern of play, play effectively, be able to control the tempo of the game and be dynamic.
Jacksen F. Tiago
The assessment criteria may be quite complex for primary school-age players, but through the MilkLife Soccer Challenge they were able to show it.
Jacksen F. Tiago
Seeing their performance on the pitch, we are optimistic about building a team that is competitive, attractive and able to compete with other countries.
