The Deadly 5, The Competition

The Search for the Deadliest Five

It's simple. We're looking for the Deadliest 5-a-side team in Powerleague

What's the definition of Deadly?

We're looking for the team with the best 5-a-side moves that showcase technical ability, pure skills, pace and vision. See The Deadly Five for the kind of moves we're talking about: the moves that create space in the frenzied 5-on-5 arena; the ones that leave defenders for dead and carve up your opponents in the blink of an eye.

How do I enter?

There are two ways you can get your deadly moves in front of our judges:

Powerleague

Book a pitch at one of 14 selected Powerleague centres while our film crews are in town (see The Deadly Five tour). They'll be capturing highlight reels of every team that turns up over four days at each centre.

Wildcard

If you can't make it to any of The Deadly Five Tour dates but think you've got something special to show us, fill out a Wildcard entry form. We will be sending our crew out to film a select number of teams that apply. Remember, we're only looking for the deadliest teams so make it worth our while.

Please note, you must be at least 17 years of age to be able to take part.

How are the winners chosen?

Nike will choose the regional winners and wildcard qualifiers on a weekly basis as the tour progresses. When the tour ends in February, we'll hand over all the selected footage to Arsenal coach and football guru, Arsene Wenger. Wenger will then choose the deadliest team and proclaim them The Deadly Five Champions.

When will you be in my area?

Check here for full details of the dates and locations of the Nike Five tour. (Or see the form above in How do I enter? if you can't make it to any of the dates.)

What's the prize?

The Deadly Five Champions get to go on a once-in-a-lifetime, money-can't-buy training session with Arsene Wenger. See The Prize for more details.

All regional winners will receive a full Nike Five football kit. You'll be dressed to kill with shirts, shorts and shoes. See The Gear for more details.
