4th EUCCC Nanjing Chapter Soccer Tournament Go back »

2008-11-26 | Nanjing

Moving away from our typically business focused events the European Chamber’s 4th Nanjing Chapter Soccer Tournament provided a good opportunity for colleagues and peers to mix outside of the work place. Two more teams participated in this tournament than in previous years which meant an extra two games per team. This made for a long day of exercise, but despite arduous schedule and the chilly weather everyone, players and supporters alike, participated throughout the tournament with high spirits and displayed good sportsmanship.

Hard fought games at the group stages resulted in the top two teams from each group meeting in the semi finals. After knocking out Lenzing and BASF-YPC respectively DT-Travel and Fraser Team met in a closely fought final. For the third year running the tournament champions was decided on penalties with a final score 7 – 6 in favor of DT Travel.

Champions:
DT Travel

Runners Up:
Fraser Team (Fraser Suites Nanjing)

Third Place
BASF-YPC Football Team (BASF-YPC)

Other participating teams were: King Power (KPMG) Wacker, Dream Team (Lufthansa Nanjing), Lenzing Fibers, Hampton, One Ford (Ford), Dogi China (Dogi Fabrics), Sofitel VIPs (Sofitel Galaxy Nanjing), Golden Goal Club (Nanjing International School),
