  • Podium party: Kut Kut (c) celebrate their triumph in Dubai.

    Following more than two months of intense competition, Kut Kut have been crowned TEKA UAE Partners Football Cup 2014 champions.

    Kut Kut went into the showpiece game unbeaten in the final stages of the six-a-side tournament and duly beat DAMAC 3-0 in the final in Dubai earlier this month to walk away with the victory that gave them the cup and also a Dh30,000 cash prize.

    DAMAC could at least console themselves with Dh15,000 and the golden boot for Ibrahim Shaaban, who top-scored with 14 goals.

    Kut Kut and DAMAC were joined in the final round of the competition by Al Fursan, Al Shaya, Dubai Ceramic Center, Delta, Dheeraj & East Coast and Kitchens & More.

    Al Fursan and Kitchens & More played for the third spot and Kitchens & More made amends for missing the final, winning the play-off 5-0 and picking up Dh7,000.

    The six-a-side football competition is one of the UAE’s premier corporate tournaments and comprised of eight groups of Teka’s clients and partners, with Teka’s own team, making a total of 32 teams and over 250 players.

    Commenting on the success of the tournament, Arturo Manso, Managing Director of Teka UAE and Teka Middle East, said: “This is the third edition of the TEKA UAE Partners Football Cup and the tournament is going from strength to strength.

    "We are glad to see that our goal has been accomplished: to share good times with our partners and clients beyond business time and to reinforce our personal relations and team work.”
