    With the World Cup fever now upon us, footballers can lace up their boots and take to the pitch for Fit On Click’s brand new football tournament next month.

    To be held at Dubai Stars Sportsplex from July 13, a total of 16 corporate teams will battle for glory in the five-a-side format.

    The event is the eighth edition with organisers Fit on Click also holding various football and cricket tournaments before. It fits in line with their vision to providing exciting platform for corporate employees to be fit and active.

    Every edition has been hugely successful and next month’s is set to be no different.

    “We started with 16 teams in our 1st edition of corporate football tournament Dubai in 2017 and since then corporate teams are eagerly waiting for the next edition to launch,” said Ben Samuel, founder and CEO of Fit on Click.

    “More and more corporates participating in the tournament itself is a success. The feedback we got from all our corporates who participated has been positive.”

    He added: “’Through this and other sports engagement activities, we encourage corporate employees in UAE to maintain a healthy lifestyle by playing a sport they enjoy in a fun and competitive environment.”

    Teams will be split into four groups of four with each side guaranteed a minimum of three games. The top two sides will then advance to the knockouts ahead of the finale on July 20. Entry fee costs Dh4,200 which includes jersey tops for 10 squad players.

    Besides the winning trophy, there is plenty to play for cash prizes up for grabs as well as individual accolades including best goalkeeper and highest goal scorer.

    With a few weeks to go until the tournament begins, Samuel believes it will be one not to miss.

    “Although it’s a football tournament and prizes can be won, most important thing a corporate can achieve through this tournament is stimulated teamwork,” he said. “It enhances confidence among the team players, improves communication and working relationship in the office and all of this can have a positive impact on the company.

    “Fit On Click Tournaments are the most professional tournaments in the region where teams can not only have fun but also network with other leading corporates participating. We invite them to be our 2nd champions after Chalhoub Group and win the Corporate cup and cash prizes.”
