Haiti crushes Bangladesh 11-0 at the U18 School World Cup in China

Two wins, four losses: that is the record of the Haitian under-18 school football team, which competed in Suzhou, China, from October 17 to 26, 2026. The Haitian School Sports Federation (FEHSCOL) provided this summary in a message from its president, Runiel Dorsainvil. The following details come from that message.

Results on the field

The Haitians dominated Bangladesh with a score of 11-0. They also beat Belgium, one goal to nil.

They lost against Quebec, Chile, and France. The scores for these three matches were not indicated. They then fell 2-0 to Guinea.

What FEHSCOL takes away from the experience

For the Federation, the value of this trip goes beyond the scores. The young players faced teams from different backgrounds and gained significant international experience. The message mentions new prospects for Haitian school sports, without detailing their content.

A partnership and a lack of public funding

The trip was made possible by a partnership signed on April 14, 2026, between FEHSCOL and Panthers Football Academy.

Runiel Dorsainvil also mentioned the difficulties encountered, primarily the lack of state funding. According to him, this situation complicated the team's preparation and the delegation's travel. Despite this, the Federation was able to represent Haiti at this tournament.
