About

We own the trademark to Panna Football in Australia. Panna is brand of small sided games played (1v1 up to 3v3) in an octagonal cage on the streets. We are pitching it as Soccer's answer to 20/20 cricket.

We have been creating awareness of the sport through our partners Melbourne Victory at every home game and have had over 1000 participants through our 1v1 cage at various events

We now need to create some stars of the sport for kids to follow and help grow the sport. To do this we need to put on an event that we think is perfect for Television so we need funds to produce a Pilot for TV.

The Event

The event itself will be staged in an indoor urban warehouse with a crowd of around 200 people and will use a unique game format using 2 teams. The  'Trick Stars' (like the Haarlem Globetrotters) and Melbourne (knickname to be established) The game will feature a 3v3, 2v2 and 1v1 games plus a Freestyle Football Battle (performing tricks with the ball) to determine the overall result.

Panna is the fastest and most skilful form of football and the ultimate aim is to Panna and humiliate your opponent by putting the ball through his legs and retreiving the other side. In 1v1 games that wins it instantly.

We will produce & film the event over 1 day in March 2013.

The event will be filmed and edited to make a 1 hour TV Show profiling the stars, event highlights interview etc 

If successful we plan to expand the league to 4 teams playing in a round robin event all for TV or a paid for You Tube Channel.

The Budget

We need funds to be able to produce this event to either pitch to TV, set up a paid for Online broadcast or pitch to a sponsor with actual footage.
