Event Format and Rules

Each region will be invited to enter one team, consisting of 4 male and 4 female players with five players on pitch, minimum 2 ladies, three subs. Any subs made during play must be of the same gender.

Matches will take place on outdoor 5-a side 4G pitches, so please bring suitable footwear.

Regions will be organised into two groups and matches played on a round-robin basis; the number of teams in each group will depend on number of entries. If less than six teams enter, the competition will still be on a round-robin basis, with all regions playing each other. Games will be at least seven minutes each way, with a one minute break at half time.

Competitors will be provided with their regional football kit, including goalkeeper kit as appropriate. Competitors need to provide their own shin pads and will not be allowed on the field of play without them. Games will be played under FA rules and refereed by FA officials.

There are changing facilities, including showers and lockers. There is also a suitable area for spectators. Lunch will be provided and refreshments will be available to purchase.

A full set of rules and playing schedule will be issued to all competitors prior to the event.
