Summer Futsal Tournament

Bedford Panthers FC would like to invite you to our inaugural Futsal Tournament at our
ground at the Bedford Sports & Hockey Centre, Chester Road Bedford.

Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th Of August.

The tournament is a celebration of Futsal, fun and quality play. It is obviously also a fun
warm up to the forthcoming season.

The tournament will be played on Astroturf

The tournament will be for Under 9’s to Under 15’s with a separate section for adults. The
age group is for the forthcoming 2010-2011 season.

(We should cheekily state to all, that Shouting “Get rid of it” is banned)

Two Groups of five (if enough teams enter) to ensure that no team will play in consecutive games - giving
time for managers/coaches to assess performance and formation.

We are aware some of you may not be fully aware of the specific rules of futsal and we strongly recommend
you look at the rules via our link on the main form.
The referees will be asked to show sensible leniency in this, our first futsal tournament.
Basic rules are all matches for all age groups are 5 a side with a roiling subs scenario. For this tournament,
matches will be 20 minutes long with a very brief half time interval.
You are allowed unlimited substitutions and all squad sizes must be a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 12.
