Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung appreciated three talented youth football teams at the Soeratin National Cup 2025, at the Balai Agung Great Hall, Jakarta City Hall yesterday.

The successful youth soccer team comes from the U-13, U-15, and U-17 age groups.

"This shows that Jakarta has many young talented individuals, young people who are truly gifted to become football players, and this gives a signal of hope," he expressed.

He hoped that those young talents would continue their careers as football players. However, they are also asked to stay focused on their education.

To support this, he also asked the Head the Education Agency to facilitate outstanding athletes in obtaining educational assistance in the form of Jakarta Smart Card (KJP Plus).

He also hoped that the future of Jakarta football would be brighter with the emergence of new talents. He believes Jakarta can become a hub for national football talents.

"On behalf of the Jakarta Government, we congratulate you on your outstanding achievement, and we hope that today's event will motivate my children to achieve even better," he continued.

Jakarta PSSI Acting Secretary General, Fauzan, appreciated the Jakarta Governor for his support to talented Indonesian football athletes. The achievements of young football athletes in the Soeratin Cup deserve recognition.

"The struggle of all the children is truly extraordinary. As someone who witnessed it firsthand, I know it's not easy to reach the champion phase," he added.

He hoped that the young talents would become professional soccer players in the coming years.
