New football programme for e.tv
Shield No Sweat Golden Goal, e.tv's new football reality programme, will premiere on Wednesday, 17 June 2009, at 9.30pm, the station announced on Tuesday, 9 June 2009.
The Shield No Sweat Golden Goal aims to entertain the whole family. The challenge is all about teamwork, skill, confidence and, most importantly, fun. While teams enjoy a game of football, they also stand the chance to win R400 000.
Two teams are in the dome and four on the bench. As soon as a goal is scored, the clock stops and the losers are replaced by a new team. Teams keep rotating for 60 minutes.
The team at the top of the leader board at the end of the 60-minute game time is the real owner of the dome. The teams get one point for a goal scored in the first quarter, two points in the second quarter and four points in the fourth quarter. The game starts off with regional play-offs, followed by regional finals. The regional winners will battle it out in the national finals for the R400 000 prize.
