This Summer just before the real event in Brazil, Totally Locally Teddington will be hosting it’s own local version of the real football World Cup! The tournament will see 16 5-a-side teams from local independent businesses battle it out at Teddington Cricket Club in glorious Bushy Park [location here] on Sunday June 1st to be crowned champions.

Many local events are geared towards mums and kids so here is one for the dads! Other fund-raising activities including a raffle with fabulous prizes from local businesses will raise funds for the League of Friends of Teddington Memorial Hospital.

On the day there will be a BBQ and bar for supporters (and players!) so come along to support your favourite business/team.

Teams playing will be:

La Bottega
The Dress

The Lensbury

Milestone
Moiduls
Red Peppers / Bar Estilo
Royal Oak
Shambles
Simply Sound & Vision
Spikes Magazine
Teddington Arms
TAFC U12 Girls Team (Dads & Coaches)
Teddington Cricket Club

A little more about the tournament! The 16 teams have been divided into 4 groups – each team will play three matches and the winner of each group (4 overall) on points will go through semi-finals, then finals. We’ll have two five-a-side pitches marked out with referees in attendance so keep it clean!
There is a NPL Sports Club football tournament happening on the day so parking might be full in the Clapperstyle car park nearby so walking is recommended or parking on nearby roads.
