- Find out who's playing on the pitch (and behind the decks) at this year's ADE charity football tournament.
The group draw has been made for this year's RA Cup, taking place at De School on Thursday, October 19th, as part of Amsterdam Dance Event.
Last year's beaten finalists Rush Hour start their bid for redemption in Group A alongside Atonal (skippered by DJ Stingray), River Dubplate and a team overseen by Amsterdam's night mayor Mirik Milan. Title holders Dekmantel have surely been drawn in the group of death: they'll be taking on Clone, Numbers and Orchid AM in Group B. Check out the full group draw below.
A selection of DJs will be playing music on the day, with Sandrien, Elias Mazian, Cinnaman and Interstellar Funk all confirmed. Members of the public are invited to watch the tournament at De School, with entry €5 per person. As well as the football and music, there will be table tennis and table football. We'll be broadcasting the event on RA Live. The tournament begins at 11 AM local time.
All of the money raised will go to Help Refugess, a grassroots organisation that supports the most vulnerable people reaching Europe's shores by working alongside local groups, charities and volunteers. You can donate here.
The RA Cup group draw:
Group A: Atonal, River Dubplate, Night Mayor Amsterdam, Rush Hour
Group B: Clone, Dekmantel, Numbers, Orchid AM
Group C: Radion, Odd Fantastic, De School, PIP Den Haag
Group D: RA, Voyage Direct, Rest Is Noise, Zwart Goud
