FORMAT
The FENIX Trophy is built on a formula divided into two phases: a group stage and the Final 8. The group stage consists of two groups of 4 teams each, in which every club will face its opponents home and away, amounting to a total of 6 games. This stage will run from mid-September until mid-May, featuring one game per week (either on Wednesdays or Thursdays), to provide continuity to the competition throughout the whole period.
The FENIX Trophy Final 8 will take place in Rimini in June and will feature the 8 clubs drawn against each other in matches based on their group table, to define the final ranking. The games will take place on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th, but the whole weekend will be an occasion for a celebration of football and friendship.

COVERAGE
The European dimension of the event and the presence of iconic clubs forms the central narrative in terms of communication.
Every match will be broadcast via free live streaming through the competition’s YouTube channel. The games will feature double commentary, both in the home team’s and away team’s language. Staging one game per week – for a total of 24 weeks – allows the clubs’ fanbases’ interest to focus on a single game at a time.
