Sixes Tournament

The "Sixes" format emerged in the late-sixties when Scottish and English clubs took part in an annual indoor tournament. It re-emerged in Northern Ireland when the Irish League held a six-a-side competition at Dundonald Ice-Bowl. The first two editions were sponsored by Guinness, with the remainder sponsored by McEwan's Lager. The format remains popular in the form of Masters Football.
