Spread over the weekend, the competition attracted ten teams and 130 players from Switzerland, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands as well as Luxembourg. Even though the weather was not perfect, the tournament could go ahead despite the occasional rain shower thanks to the brand new shiny pink and blue all weather pitch that has recently been installed at Cessange.
The teams played some stirring matches and the final between the VanDenBulke and Friends team and the Hockey Horror Picture Show was described as featuring “breath-taking moments of suspense”. In the end, it was VanDenBulke and Friends who lifted the trophy.
But the weekend also had its social side away from the pitch. Participants donned fancy dress with a “musicals” theme for a party at the Black Stuff.
The tournament was supported by a number of sponsors including Kneip, Kortekaas Law, Bofferding, VandenBulke, The Black Stuff, Xpertize Luxembourg, Oscars Bar, Le Foyer- Schmit, Hubert, Mourah and Park Inn.
All funds raised over the weekend go to the Fondation Kriibskrank Kanner.
