ITB Rector Opens the 27th Wiranto Arismunandar Cup, Promoting Early-Age Sports Development

The Rector of ITB, Prof. Dr. Ir. Tatacipta Dirgantara, M.T., officially opened the 27th ITB Wiranto Arismunandar Cup at the Saraga ITB Football Field on Sunday (14 December 2025). For more than two decades, the WA Cup has served as an indicator and benchmark for early-age football development in the Greater Bandung area. The tournament has been part of the early journey of several national-level players. Athletes such as Febri Hariyadi and Beckham Putra previously competed in the WA Cup before going on to represent Persib Bandung and the Indonesian National Team. Beyond football, the WA Cup has also produced national futsal team players, including Andri Januar and Gustian Sukma Wardhana.
