Sunday at 12 lunchtime the local team UD Chio are having their opening game against UD Chio in the football grounds in Chio. This starts at 12 and they will play and afterwards there will be a party with bouncy castles for the children, Paella, beer and a good time. There will be a tombola and UD Chio are looking for people to buy season tickets for 30 euros.

It would be great to see people there. Ther aircorps regiment are on a break after getting back from Afganistan and need some supporters there to cheer them on. There are posters everywhere and below is one so you can see.

Just got back from the event which can be described as a great sucess. UD Chio beat the British Army team 2-1 in a hotly contested match in the merciless mid-day sun.
A crowd of around 200 turned up and many participated in the raffle with the proceeds going towards the re-formed UD Chio team.
I must say despite alot of advertising in the English press and posters put in many bars the ex-pat turn out was poor with only 7 making their way to the game. Not even with free entrance, free drinks, beer all day and after the game a massive paella for everyone. Anyway the army lads that have just served in Afghanistan had a great time and they were aplauded from the stadium.
