StanChart Indoor Corporate Soccer Championship to begin tomorrow
Fri 03 August 2012
Saran Sports will organise the 5th Standard Chartered Indoor Corporate Soccer Championship 2012, an inter-corporate tournament, at the Central Railway Multipurpose Complex in Parel, Mumbai, on Aug. 4 and 5. The tournament, for both men and women, will bring together Mumbai's leading corporate houses, with over 64 teams battling it out for glory. The Saran Sports property is registered in the Limca Book of Records as the largest and longest running corporate soccer event in India for corporate executives.


The venue is being converted into a soccer arena to ensure that an exciting, fast-paced format of soccer is in store for the corporate executives. The tournament is played indoors and special rules are structured to ensure that the matches are competitive as well as fun. The tournament will not have goalkeepers, no offside rules, and the ball will always be in play using sideboards. The men's team will comprise four players and the women's team will comprise five players. Matches will be played on a league-cum-knockout basis. These 64 teams will play matches over a two-day period. The league matches will be held on the first day, while the knockout matches will be held on the second day. More than 1,000 spectators are expected to attend the tournament.


The tournament is sponsored by Standard Chartered Bank and co-sponsored by Vodafone. The associate sponsors are Cadbury Bournville and Budweiser. The tournament is being promoted through media releases and by sending mailers to Saran Sports' entire database.


Commenting on the property, Sanjiv Saran Mehra, Founder and CEO, Saran Sports said: "The Indoor Corporate Soccer Championship serves as the ideal platform for the busy executives to be away from the pressures of workplace in a relaxed environment. Saran Sports are pioneers in India in corporate sports. We are conceptualising and managing the Indoor Corporate Soccer 5s, which is our property. Standard Chartered have been supporting the Liverpool Football Club which plays the English Premier League; hence they were associated with the Corporate Football Programme which includes three properties - Corporate Soccer 5s, Indoor Corporate Soccer Championship and Corporate Soccer League."
