About our record attempt... a fun and exciting day for families and businesses.

it's gonna be tough... but great fun!

It may sound like a kickabout in the park, but this is no mean feat. This is 30 hours of competetive Five-A-Side Football played by highly trained individuals and adjudicated to the strictest levels to ensure that we achieve our objective of Guinness World Record holders and succeed in raising £30,000 for Sport Relief.

We're hard at work planning an amazing event; at an as yet unannounced Sheffield location on the 20th of March 2010 where the whole family can enjoy exciting sports, incredible music and top quality entertainment and refreshments over a fun packed 30 hours that is fast gaining attention from the national media. We need YOUR help to achieve our goals; discover ways you can donate or get involved.

so how does the record attempt work?

Friendly kick-about? Bah! This is going to be an endurance test that will affect the players both physically and mentally... no doubt pushing the limits of both! The rules are essentially broken into two - how the game is played and how it's recorded.

Players: For every hour of competitive football played, the players accrue 5 minutes break. That time can be accumulated to 20 mins which is used for eating, sleeping, toilet breaks, interviews and bouts of crying! The game has to be played stringently to the 5 a-side rules and at no point are players to simply pass the ball around with the hope of rest. What if you're a sub I hear you say! They must get it easy! Well, You're wrong! They aren't allowed more than a certain distance from the pitch unless it's a designated break. With Rolling Sub's during a break in play, they won't get much time to rest.

As for Evidence gathering, to give you a taste of what we need...

To name just a mere smidgen of what we need... This is then handed to an official Guinness World Record Adjudicator who, God willing, will issue the record on the day and make 16 very tired people happy!

from sports science research projects through business networking, our event will reach millions.

Training for the event in being kindly provided by the Sports Science Department at the University of Derby, and a research initiative in conjunction with the Psychology Department into the effects of sleep deprivation on athletes aims to take advantage of the extreme conditions our players will face. With so much happening; media attention is growing fast. We've already spoken with major channels, production companies, Press and PR agencies and health publications; suffice to say we're expecting coverage to be huge.
