IB x IBP Football Tournament and Party
2022-04-30 00:00 - 23:59 UTC
Ladies and gentlemen of the two greatest programs CBS has to offer: We are happy to announce this year’s football tournament! ⚽️How does it work?
Teams from each program will compete against each other in the pursuit of what will be the equivalent of a Champions League final (and a very glamorous price for the team that comes out on top🏅). The event will be hosted at CBS’ own facilities, on the 30th of April, in the afternoon – specific time will be announced later.
Cold drinks and alcohol? 🍻
There will be provided incredible and ice-cold refreshments throughout the entire day. Beers and other kinds of liquor will be sold at the event at favorable prices (taking everyone’s SU-lifestyle into account). 🍺🍹🍸🥂
We hope to see as many of you as possible in what we anticipate to be an incredible event! Whether you want to play yourself or merely join from the sidelines to drink some beers with your favorite buddies in the beautiful Copenhagen summertime weather, the event can easily accommodates both wishes ☀️
We are looking forward to bridging the people of our two amazing programs and hope to have a blast with as many of you as possible!
(psttt.. there might be a little bit of an exclusive IBxIBP after party later at night, so stay tuned for further updates on that 🎉🎊)
Sign up using the link below 🍾
IMPORTANT PRACTICAL INFO:
If you want to join as a SPECTATOR, fill in the information relevant to you.
If you join the tournament as a player, however, only the captain from each team should sign up on behalf of the rest of the players. That way, we’ll know the specific members of each team competing in the tournament.
EVERY team has to have at least two players of each gender (e.g. 2 women and 6 men).
Size of the teams: Between 7-9 players
DEADLINE FOR SIGN UP: Monday 25th of April
