Star Sixes is a competitive six-a-side indoor football competition where former international association football players are chosen to represent a senior national team for which they played.[1][2][3] The inaugural event took place in July 2017 in London, at The O2 Arena.[1][2][3] Further regionalised events were set for late-2017 in Asia.[1][2][3] A 2019 edition was confirmed in October 2018.[4]

Format

For the inaugural edition, all teams participating had a squad of ten players, with six being on the field of play including a captain.[5] Squads were chosen by the team captain and the tournament organisers. There were three groups of four.[5] In the groups, each team played each other team once and the top two from each group, plus two best third-placed teams, progressed to the quarter-finals, before facing off for a place in the semi-final and subsequent final. Six group matches (two from each group) took place on day one, before the same amount on days two and three.[5] The quarter-finals were held on day three with the semi-finals, third place play-off and final following on the last day of competition. There was no extra time or penalties in the group stage but a penalty shoot-out could have been played if a knockout fixture ended tied.[5] Group matches lasted for 20 minutes, while knockout fixtures lasted for 30 minutes, with short half-time breaks.[5]
