The series of holding the MilkLife Soccer Challenge Series I 2025-2026 in Jakarta will be completed on Sunday, November 23, 2025. A total of 2,708 students are participants in this series, which is a record.
The Director of MilkLife Soccer Challenge, Teddy Tjahjono, considered that this number showed a positive response from early-aged female footballers to the event initiated by the Djarum Foundation and MilkLife Sports Service.

At the beginning of last year's event, the Jakarta series was only 368 participants. Overall, the implementation of Series I 2025-2026 in 10 cities, the number of participants was recorded at 17,365 students.
Teddy said that this growth shows that football schools and academies are now more serious about preparing to participate in tournaments that are held regularly and have a positive impact.
"With routine events and the quality of the implementation that continues to be maintained, new seeds will naturally emerge. We believe that later many young players in the Indonesian National Team will come from this event," he said.
The increasing number of participants in each holding of the MilkLife Soccer Challenge automatically provides benefits as well as makes it difficult for the talent scouting team.
Head of Coach MilkLife Soccer Challenge, Timo Scheunemann, said that not a few schools and teams that had just participated were able to immediately compete and create potential talents.
"On the one hand, the situation benefits us as the organizers, while on the other hand it also makes us have to be extra careful in capturing the best talents," he said.
MilkLife Soccer Challenge Jakarta Series I 2025-2026 gave birth to SDN Cipinang Muara 19 Pagi as the new 10 year age group (KU) champion and SDN Kunciran 4 champion in the 12 year age group.
Furthermore, this tournament will continue the MilkLife Soccer Challenge Series II 2025-2026 starting January 2026 in Kudus, Semarang, Surabaya, Tangerang, Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Bandung, Solo, Bekasi, and Malang.
After that, the selected athletes will take part in the MilkLife Soccer Extra Training to train intensively before competing in the MilkLife Soccer Challenge All-Stars 2025-2026 in June at the Supersoccer Arena, Kudus.
Senior Brand Executive MilkLife, Wisnu Renggo Pambudi, said that MilkLife again contributed to the success of the 2025-2026 MLSC Series II as a form of sustainability of the company's vision.
