History

The Acapais Men's National Team was founded just after the conclusion of World Cup 32 and the Baptism of Fire sign ups. Like most new nations, the first World Cup campaign (WC33) ended in elimination in the qualifying round. Acapais was therefore invited to participate in Cup of Harmony 25 where they were knocked out in the quarterfinals. The next qualifying campaign for World Cup 34 ended in heart break. A third place finish ment the Hearts had to enter into a playoff with The HURD. After a two legged affair ended in a 3-3 aggragate draw, The HURD defeated Acapais 5-4 in a Penalty kick shootout for a World Cup spot.

Home Stadium

Acapais national football stadium is called S'jet Stadium. It is located in the capital city, Hearn, on the southwest corner of highway 101 and 254 and has a maximum capacity of 84,000. The stadium was named after the S'jet family, wealthy native Acapans in the real-estate market, donated a large sum of credits to the city of Hearn to help build this edifice.
