*************Need Help Teams Wanted***********

Righto we're gonna put on the tournament on July 27th, Dublin. Venue Irishtown Stadium, Ringsend Dublin 4. It'll be €400 per team. Squads of 10-12 players.

Each player is expected to raise a minimum of €40 (depends on number of squad).
So essentially asking 8 people to sponsor you for €5 

Money raised will go to the YBIG Charities Aoibheann's Pink Tie and Shine. I'll update with further details as it comes along.

Crossbar challenge and knocked out teams raffle

Any team knocked out in the first round will get a raffle ticket for each player, and also free entry to the crossbar challenge. The C.B.C. will be run when the semi-finals and finals are held. In Slattery's we will put up a lot of small prizes from ybig jerseys and t-shirts to free pints for the raffle, not sure exactly what we'll have for the C.B.C.

How long are the halves?
No halves, it'll be group games of around 25minutes, 3 group games. So every team will get over an hour off football, we may if we've time play extra games i.e. teams knocked out in the group stages will play each other.

Are we playing on the astro turf?
Yes, the full size pitch beside Irishtown Stadium, it will be divided into four, like we do with our league games with Inter7s.com

Any idea of a start time?
Registration will be about 11, and kick offs about 12, should be finished by about 4/5

will we be wearing bibs to distinguish teams?
Ideally you'd bring jerseys but yes we have loads of sets of bibs if needs be, we'll supply balls etc etc

Afters
We'll go to upstairs in Slatterys (5 mins away). This will be for the presentation of winning team, player of the tournament, top goal scorer, top keeper and team that raises the most and individual if someone raises loads. If the charities are interested they can also give a quick speech. Slattery's sponsors our leagues so I'll get some extra perks out of them.

Anything else
Working on trying to get a recent former player to be the face of the tournament, hoping we can do something with him - I'll post up the info once I get it.

We plan to grow this tournament into a really big annual tournament with 32 teams, so all support getting the first one of the ground would be appreciated. If you could copy the poster and send it on to any lads you know that play football.
