Playing fields
All playing fields at Cup No. 1 are situated close to the information, eliminating the need for transport by bus; all fields lie within walking distance.
There is a regular bus service from the schools to the fields. Please note that the A-finals are played at Frederikshavn Stadium.
The dining hall, where lunch and dinner are served, is located less than 500 metres from the Information Centre at Fodboldvej.
First-aid assistance
Need medical attention? The first aid tent is located next to the referee tent between lanes 5 and 7, where you can find nurses, medical students, etc. who are always ready and prepared to help. In the event of an emergency at one of the schools, please contact the emergency services on tel. 70 150 300.
Visits to the emergency room can incur costs for non-EU citizens. Such a visit is considered a private consultation. The price is typically DKK 500 plus any additional charges. EU citizens carrying a valid European Health Insurance Card (the blue one) do not have to pay for visits to the emergency room, hospital, or any general practitioner. If you are over the age of 18 and have not brought your European Health Insurance Card, you will be charged for all treatments by the general practitioners, emergency room visits, and hospital visits.
We therefore recommend that participants from non-EU countries bring travel insurance from their country of residence, which will cover them in case of an emergency.
Insurance
All participants are responsible and liable for damages and injuries committed on or off the field. Each club must ensure that their club members are insured both on and off the field. Neither Cup No.1 nor the organiser have collective insurance to cover injuries, illness, theft, or damages.
Cancellation of the tournament and force majeure
Neither Cup No.1 nor the organiser is responsible for compensation, financial losses, or damages that may occur due to events outside the control of Cup No.1 the organiser, such as war-like events, floods, pandemics, fires, government actions, strikes, or other similar circumstances.

In case of cancellation - regardless of the time - and in case of no-show, no part of the teamfee will be refunded.
If you cancel before June 16th, 60% of the participation fee will be refunded.
In case of cancellation on June 16th or later and in case of no-show, no part of the participation fee will be refunded.
The refund rules apply, regardless of whether the cancellation / non-appearance is due to failure to obtain a visa, delayed or canceled trains, flights or ferries, strikes, lockouts, blockades or similar incidents.
The rules are similarly applicable in the event of war, war-like conditions, rebellion, civil lawlessness or similar incidents, as well as earthquakes or other natural disturbances.
Financial compensation is not provided to teams that lose matches as a result of other teams' non-appearance or their own delayed appearance.
