Event Mogul, Bangalore organized a corporate level football tournament on 4th and 5th of October 2009. Ten teams participated in this mega event on the theme ‘De-Stress Bangalore’. Green was selected as the color of the event for this purpose. Thompson Reuters emerged as the winner and EMC was the runners up in the Champion’s Cup. SAP won the challenger’s cup, which was organized for the non qualifiers of the Challenger’s cup.
Every team was given an opportunity to play in atleast 5 thrilling football matches against the traditional one or two matches. The first round consisted of league matches for the every team for the cash prize tournament followed by another set of matches for the non cash tournament for the teams not qualifying the main tournament.
The event happened at the heart of the city just behind the most famous landmark of the city, UB City. The crowd was highly energetic and the food provided at the venue was more than expectations.
Such events can help football in the long term to become one of the most played sports in developing nations like India. This not only promotes football among the corporate but also the common people associated with such events.

The finals of the Champion’s trophy proved that both the teams were equally strong. The game ended 0-0 even after the extra time of 6 minutes. It took 10 penalty shootouts to decide on the champions!

I have a 5 a side football tournament tomorrow and I’m pretty unfit. So I was wondering if anyone could give me a few tips on how to get my fitness up a little bit before hand.
I know obviously I won’t acheive anywhere near full fitness in one day but I don’t wanna get tired too easily and if I excersize too much today I could feel worse tomorrow due to muscle pain.
