The Valais Youth Cup was a two-day international football tournament that featured four teams. It was played at the Complexe Sportif du Bout du Lac in Le Bouveret, Switzerland.
In February 2013, FIFA gave Kosovo permission to play games against FIFA members' youth teams. This competition saw Kosovo compete in their first officially recognised fixture when they played Ghana, on 14 June 2013. The tournament was used to prepare Egypt and Ghana for the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup competition.
