A message from Slavik, Ukraine regarding Chelsea fans. Have a read and let him know!
Hello!
My name is Slavik, I am from Ukraine, I represent Public organization "Karpaty" (http://www.gokarpaty.org/ ), which organize an international tournament for football supporters "Eurofan" in Lviv, Ukraine.
Maybe you would be interested to put together an amateur fan football team to represent supporters of Chelsea FC during the international tournament "Eurofan-2009" in Ukraine?
Below I give you detailed information about the tournament.
On 25-28 June 2009 we will be holding the international tournament for football supporters "Eurofan 2009" in Lviv (Ukraine) for the 3rd consecutive year.
Current list of teams confirmed their participation looks like this:
Zenit (Russia), Chievo Verona (Italy), 1.FC Koln, Schalke 04 (both - Germany), Ostrovia (Poland), Wales supporters team, Atletico Madrid (Spain), Heerenveen (The Netherlands), AEK Athens (Greece), Rapid (Austria), Westerlo (Belgium), Glasgow Rangers (Scotland), Karpaty (Ukraine) and the Team of Ukrainian showbiz stars.
That's 14 out of necessary 16 fan teams.
Tournament rules: 11-a-side teams, match consists of 2 times (each
lasts 30 minutes).
During games we arrange live comments and music (speakers are placed
around the ground,
DJ and commentator work with microphones).
Number of substitutes is not limited.
We arrange accommodation for 15 people for 2 nights in a comfortable
hotel (half board) - it is on us.
The 3rd night for those 15 persons and accommodation for extra members of
your delegation is on you (for one person one night in hotel costs 15-20
Euro).
Also we arrange and pay for an excursion tour around our city with an
interpreter.
After the tournament we organize a celebration party with booze, meals,
prizes and mementos for all tournament guests (everything is on us).
Also all team members will be able to watch live shows of a large
rock festival in Lviv (one ticket valid during 3 days will cost about 10
Euro).
The “Eurofan” tournament is a unique event not only in Ukraine, but in
all Europe.
As you may know, Lviv will be one of host cities for Euro-2012. Our city is regarded the cultural capital of Ukraine. It has quite interesting old architecture and resembles Vienna, Krakow or Paris to some extent.
Herewith, we officially invite a fan football team representing glorious Chelsea FC to take part in the "Eurofan-2009" tournament.
I also previously received an positive reaction from fans at CFCnet
They are interested but they find it difficult to put together a whole team (for the moment 7 persons have agreed to take part) so maybe in case you are interested, you could make a joint fan team with them?
Their contact is Darren Mantle (dazzmantle@hotmail.com).
In case you are interested to participate in "Eurofan-2009" tournament,
please let me know as soon as possible:
e-mail: gokarpaty@gmail.com
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards, Slavik.
Dit kwam ik tegen op een Chelsea fansite en tot mijn verbazing doet Heerenveen (NN?) hier dus ook aan mee. Heb hier verder nog nooit wat van gehoord. Is er iemand op dit forum die hier meer van kan vertellen of zelf mischien mee doet?
Wel een leuk idee! Internationaal voetbaltoernooi voor supporters.
