All 12 Scottish Premiership clubs will enter a team into a legends version of cult indoor tournament the Tennent’s Soccer Sixes later this year.
The revived event, backed by the SPFL, will take place at Braehead Arena on the weekend of 3 and 4 October and be broadcast on Premier Sports.
Group stages will be played on Saturday, with the winner and runner-up from three regionalised groups of four teams progressing to the knockout stage along with the best third-placed teams.
Every game will have a winner, with a bonus point for a penalty shootout win in the event of a draw after normal time. The sin bin will also be in operation.
The Tennent’s Soccer Sixes was a staple of the Scottish football scene for nine years from 1984, with clubs fielding many of their leading players.
Partick Thistle, who are in the Scottish Championship and therefore will not play in this year’s revived event, were the winners of last tournament in 1993.
