Five-a-side Football Meeting- Erreà Cup
Bibione (Ve): May,10/11 – June, 7/8 2008
The most spectacular and fanstastic Five-a-side summer tournament (3,000 participants last year!) offers for the 2008 summer two new sports events you cannot miss: the first, on Saturday, 10 and Sunday, 11 May; the second, on Saturday, 7 and Sunday, 8 June. The scenario will be again the area used for the big events: a stretch of playgrounds (you play inside the Municipal Stadium in Bibione) ready to host a coloured army of amateurs and athletes coming from all over Italy and Europe.
The sports activities will go on in the name of entertainment and fun among spritz parties in the evening and nights in the best clubs of the seaside resort. For the whole duration of the event, a gastronomic stand with music and animation will be at disposal.
Application and playing features. The Bibione Meeting is intended for teams of all playing levels divided into the categories 5vs5 men e 5vs5 women. Each team can dispose of maximum seven reserves. The athletes who applied in one team cannot participate in other teams. The playing features consist in a qualifying (on Saturday) with matches played according to Italian rounds with four/five teams. At the end of the qualifying, a provisional rank for each playing category will be made, according to the point ratio gained by each team up to that moment (for the teams having the same point ratio, we will consider the teams having formalised the tournament application as first).
The 224 teams having the best point ratio gained in the qualifying, for each playing category, will take part to the final phase (on Sunday).
The final phase (Sunday) will take place according to the above mentioned rank, with matches with direct elimination until the final match. The qualifying games will be organized in two rounds lasting 10 minutes each, the final phase qualifying games will have a unique round lasting 15 minutes. Just the final matches (1st – 2nd and 3rd – 4th position) will be made of 2 rounds lasting 10 minutes each. The refereeing will be made by Federation referees and, with a rotation, by the same participants according to a detailed match program provided at the check-in. The playing rules are available on the website www.radunocalcetto.it.
N.B. If you do not have a team or if you cannot find a player to complete it, insert your request into the Guestbook on the website; your participation can be guaranteed thanks to the exchange of similar requests.
Playing strip. The playing equipment will be made of numbered T-shirt, shorts, sockets, shinguards and gym shoes or five-a-side shoes (shoes with studs are not allowed). The goalkeeper will wear a T-shirt having colours that make him easily distinguishable among the other football players. The participation fee includes the delivery of six Erreà playing strips (numbered T-shirt and shorts for five players + goalkeeper); further playing strips can be requested at the cost of 15.00 euro/strip. If some teams do not wish to receive the playing strips, their participation fee will be reduced by an amount of euro 40.00 (see application form).
Insurance and health certificate. Though this is a non competitive sports event, it is warmly suggested to the participants to draw up a personal accident insurance. In this regard, the organization suggests the enrollment to the A.I.C.S for the sports year 2007/2008 that will provide a minimum insurance cover both in case of accidents and in case of damage to third persons during the competition (see application form). We also remind that all athletes have to have the regular health certification requested for the sports activity they practice. The non card-carrying athletes are requested to have a health certificate stating their non competitive sports fitness (the so called good health certificate) valid for the current year.
