There are just 147 days to go before the start of the Leisure Leagues powered  World Cup in Crete.

32 nations will be battling it out for five days in October to see who can be crowned Kings of the World, many including players who play in our leagues throughout the world.

Will it be Leisure Leagues players from Germany, maybe players from Slovakia, Poland, Pakistan or all the other corners where we find our brand?

That’s before we even get to the thousands of players in England, Wales and Ireland.

That’s for the future, but as the excitement builds, we will have much more from thorough out the world, but right now, we are delighted to reveal the World Cup Ball!

The International Socca Federation is delighted  this afternoon to announce a fantastic ball sponsorship deal with the world class football brand Umbro. All of the Match Balls for our Socca World Cup in Crete this October will be the Umbro Neo Professional ball. This FIFA Quality Pro match ball is a 14 panel hand stitched Ball of the highest quality ensuring all players will have a world class ball at their feet during our world class event.

Sponsorship Director Martin Cassidy admitted he was thrilled to have such a brand on board, adding: “A world class event like this needs a world class ball – and we have one.

“This along with the other deals we’ve previously announced, will enable Crete 2019 to build on the marvellous success of the Lisbon event.”
