AUTUMN ACTION IN AMSTERDAM! International
five-a-side organisers Eurofives are once again running this popular friendly
tournament especially for company teams and friends. It will be held during October
2008, in the neutral venue of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. SUPPORT YOUR CHOSEN CHARITY! Although
this is not a charity tournament as such, if your company team would like to
play in support of your chosen charity, then we would be delighted to
highlight that. As a suggestion, your company may like to sponsor your team’s
opening goal (could be a glorious moment for the scorer!) or individual colleagues/friends
could sponsor that via the www.justgiving.com
website to which we would link on the tournament webpage. |
