Darlington fans can enjoy a unique day out at the Northern Echo Arena with a World Cup corporate tournament this summer.

The club’s Corporate World Cup, on the day of two of the real tournament’s quarter-finals, Saturday July 3, will involve squads of 10 competing in seven-a-side games on the Arena pitch.

Each team will represent a nation taking part in this summer’s tournament in South Africa, with kits supplied by Erreà, and will all get at least three matches.

The games will be played between 10am and 3pm, then all participants can watch the two World Cup quarter-final games followed by dinner and an after-dinner speaker as well as the presentation of the winners’ trophy.

“It’ll be a fairly unique event for us,” said Darlington’s general manager Phil Preston. “But it’ll certainly be an enjoyable one 

“Everyone is looking forward to the World Cup and we’re no different. This is really to celebrate the tournament and enjoy it with a twist. Let’s just hope we’re watching England in the quarter-finals!”

The whole package costs just £700 per team, which works out at only £70 per person, and they’re available from the club on 01325 387000 or email: commercial@darlington-fc.net
