The U15 boys' and girls' teams from the Autonomous Provincial Committee of Bolzano were the main protagonists at the international Arge Alp football tournament in Bellinzona, Ticino. The boys, coached by Harald Crepaz, finished in third place, while the girls, coached by Denise Ferraris, achieved fifth place.

In the boys' competition, South Tyrol started with a 3-0 victory against Salzburg thanks to goals from Fill, Berger, and Rossi, but then suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat against Trentino, the eventual tournament winner. Thanks to a draw against Vorarlberg (1-1, with a goal from Vanzi), South Tyrol qualified as group runners-up for the third-place match, which they ultimately won 3-1 after a comeback against Graubünden, with goals from Tschigg, Facen, and Gurschler.

The girls' team.

In the girls' competition, the South Tyrolean team achieved a 4-2 victory against St. Gallen in the group stage, with goals from Götsch, Zainoune, Franzelin, and Weis, as well as two defeats (0-1 against Ticino and 2-3 against Tyrol, goals from Zainoune and Spögler), finishing in third place. In the match for fifth place, they then convincingly defeated Graubünden 5-0, thanks to a brace from Hofer and goals from Rieder, Schenk, and Rabensteiner.
