Betting and Winning Prizes Around the UEFA EURO 2008(TM): ContiFanTip is Starting Right Now
HANNOVER, Germany, May 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Continental is enhancing the possibilities for fans to win prizes around the UEFA European Football Championships with a betting and raffles game. The idea is to accurately predict the results of the individual matches. The interesting bit is that every football fan has the opportunity of comparing his know-how against that of all the other fans globally. In addition, Continental - as an official sponsor of UEFA EURO 2008(TM) - has arranged for its business partners the opportunity of creating their own online groups for internal competitions, and winning prizes. The online competition has just opened on http://www.ContiFanWorld.com/#fanTip. The players must accurately predict the results of the individual matches here - but without goals which may be scored in extra time or in a penalty shoot-out. Continental customers - and all others - can also compete against one another or against thousands of global participants in the game, or select a team of their own as "team captain" to test their football knowledge against one another. With this platform, Continental allows the individual teams to set their own rules and record the results. Continental awards Continental passenger car tires and Adidas footballs as prizes for the best among the experts. Continental rucksacks with football-look are also up for grabs. The tire divisions of Continental AG are an official sponsor of the UEFA Euro 2008(TM), which will take place in June 2008 in Austria and Switzerland.
