News and Updates

Event news and updates will be posted in this LFS forum areas, as well as on our official event Discord server.


Tournament Format

The event will take place at the Sim Broadcasts Stadium and will use the [TC] Gaming Football InSim. We will be using the Football and XF GT Electric mods.
  • An LFS S3 license is required to enter.
  • The event will consist of group stages, semifinals, a third-place playoff and final.
  • Players will use the XF GT Electric.
  • A maximum of 8 teams of 4 drivers can compete.
  • Reserves will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • The event will last for approximately 3.5 hours.
  • Listen to referee instructions carefully.
  • Referee decisions are final.
  • No deliberate ramming.
  • Do not cross the yellow line in your half before the kickoff countdown has ended.
  • First offense, yellow card (warning), second offense red card (removed from match).
  • Car reset will be allowed.
The Group Stage will consist of two groups of four teams. Every team plays each other within the group in a round robin. Group stage games will consist of two halves, each of them 3 minutes long. Group games will be played in alternation and are scored as follows:
  • 3 points for a win
  • 1 point for a draw
  • 0 points for a loss
The two highest scoring teams from each group progress to the semifinals. In case of a tie on points after the group stage, the following tie-breakers will be used:
  1. Higher number of points in head to head matches
  2. Goal difference in head to head matches
  3. Goals scored in head to head matches
  4. Goal difference in all group matches
  5. Higher number of goals scored in group matches
  6. Higher number of wins in group stage
  7. If any of the above fail to decide a tie, an extra game will be played to decide the winner, with extra time being added, if necessary.
Semifinals are played in elimination format. Each half will be 5 minutes long. Four teams will play in the semifinals: The winning team from Group A will meet the second placed team from Group B. The winning team from Group B will meet the second placed team from Group A. The winning team from each semifinal progresses to the final. Losing teams progress to the third-place playoff.

A Third-Place Playoff will decide who takes third place in the tournament. Each half will be 5 minutes long. The two losing teams from the semifinals will play in this match before the final. In the case of a tie, an extra time period of 3 minutes will be played. In the case of a tie after extra time, we will decide a winner based on the tiebreak rules from the group stage.

Golden goal ruel applies for semifinals and third place game - first goal in overtime ends the game.

The Soccar Cup 2022 Final will consist of 6 minute halves. If there is no winner after the 12 minute game, overtimes are played until the game is decided - no golden goal rule applies here

The scheduled running is as follows:

14:00-16:00 UTC - GROUP GAMES 3:00 MINUTE HALVES - GROUP A AND B GAMES WILL ALTERNATE

Entering the tournament

There will be a maximum of 8 teams consisting of 4 players each. Teams will be filled on a first-come first served basis. You may only register yourself for the tournament.
Teams will be filled to prioritise full teams of 4 first. It is possible to sign up as an individual, a pair, or a team of 3, but we will only allocate you to a team when we are able to fill one. We will not put a limit on the number of signups as we will keep a reserve list in case any drivers do not turn up. Reserves will be called up to play on a first-come first-served basis.

The name format for the event is as follows:

"[X] Name" where X is the colour of your team: R G Y B M C W K. For example, for the red team: [R] Name (^1[R] ^7Name)
