Every summer, Fife's Finest organise a 7-a-side tournament amongst Raith Rovers fans and supporters teams from across the UK.

This year will be our 7th tournament and I'm delighted to reveal that RRFC have given us permission to play at Stark's Park this year on Saturday 19th May. As a result, we are able to increase the size of the tournament (as most years it is over-subscribed) and we would like to give the opportunity to Rovers fans to take the final available spaces.

If you'd like to enter a team, please PM me no later than Sunday 22nd April. Given the limited spaces, teams will be entered on a first come, first served. Please note, in the spirit of the touranment we are looking for Raith supporters to form teams, rather than enter teams that already play in existing leagues.

Format is 3 groups of 6 teams playing each other once in a league setup, before the top 2 and 2 best 3rd placed teams progress to the knock-outs. Matches will be 10 mins each.

Following the tournament, the Raith Suite will be open where players can have a few beers and watch the Scottish Cup Final, and a buffet will be provided; we then have the function suite at Styx and pool arranged before watching the Champions League Final.

Kick-off is 11am and cost is £100 per team. All profit will go directly to Raith Rovers FC.

Please note, in the event that Raith Rovers FC finish in 9th place in the league, the event will be moved to an alternative location and the entry fee reduced. All teams will be notified at 2 weeks notice if this is the case, with the option to pull out.
