The Burgas school football championship for the 2026/2027 school year has 46 teams. It is part of the School Games programme and has already started.
The teams play in three groups: grades 5–7, grades 8–10 and grades 11–12.
FC Zvezda is providing the pitches for the matches free of charge. Club chairman Petar Aleksiev said the club rents and runs the grounds.
Burgas council says the club is showing its commitment to school sport and backing young talent. It says the facility gives players better conditions for matches. It also supports an active lifestyle, team spirit and love of football among children and young people in Burgas.
On 9 November we reported that 28 teams from Burgas schools played chess at the Neftohimik hall in the municipal stage of the School Games in the 2026/2027 school year. The Academician Nikola Obreshkov Mathematics High School won three of the four titles.
This is not the first time FC Zvezda has given its grounds to the school championship.
