The Global Football Tournament for Air Traffic Controllers and Pilots
Greetings friends from around the world!
Finally after two long years, the world seems to be wakening up from its Covid slumber and we are getting back to a semi-normal status. We are therefore delighted to announce the next WCC tournament which is entitled ‘Football and Friends, Special Edition’ and will be held in Tenerife between the 7th and the 12th November 2022.
Tenerife is a modern and safe beach resort destination with amazing facilities and amenities all year round and we have grass and artificial pitches at our disposal.
We cannot forecast what will happen regarding further restrictions should Covid make an unwelcome comeback but should participants be unable to participate due to Covid, they will receive their money back.
At present, to enter Spain, all passengers, regardless of the country of origin (except children under the age of 12), must show one of these documents:
An EU digital Covid certificate, or EU equivalent of Covid-19 vaccination, or a negative certificate of an active infection diagnostic test or a recovery certificate after having this disease. Masks are not required.
Should the cancellation happen after the 25th September, 2022 a refund should be available subject to a €100 administration charge which is according to the cancellation policies of the hotels and suppliers. Full details of the Covid cancellation policy is detailed on the website.
So friends, let’s get together, rekindle the WCC flame and meet up for some football, beers and fun!
Looking forward to seeing everyone in Tenerife!
Yours in Sport
