The 2023 U-16 International Dream Cup (officially in Template:Lang-ja), was the 7th edition of the U-16 International Dream Cup, an annual international age-restricted football tournament organized by the Japan Football Association (JFA). It was held at the J-Village Stadium from 31 May to 4 June 2023.[1][2] Japan were crowned champions for the 5th time.

Format

The four invited teams played in a round-robin tournament. A penalty-shootout are played when the match resulted in a draw. Points awarded in the group stage followed the formula of three points for a win, two points for a penalty-shootout win, one point for a penalty-shootout loss, and zero points for a loss. In the event, if two teams were tied in points, tie-breakers would be applied in the order of goal difference, goals scored, head-to-head result, and a fair play score based on the number of yellow and red cards.[3]
