Soccer on the Sands is themed on one of the 3 major footballing tournaments; the World Cup, the European Championships or the Champions League.
The 2007 event took place over the weekend of June 2 & 3, and it was the biggest yet with 128 teams taking part over the weekend. As in previous years it was held on Great Yarmouth's Central Beach with the Champions League being last year's tournament theme. Each team represented a club involved in last year’s Champions League with every player receiving their designated Champions League Club’s Soccer on the Sands t-shirt to wear, giving them the chance to be one their footballing heroes for the day.
The dates for this year have been confirmed as 31 May and 1 June 2008.
