“Kick Your Way to Barcelona” with BEKO & FC Barcelona

As part of this global premium partnership with FC Barcelona, one of the top football clubs in the world (lead by Lionel Messi, Neymar Jr., Gerard Piqué, Luis Suárez and Andrés Iniesta), and to strengthen the Beko Philippines Facebook fan page (@BekoPh); BEKO Philippines launched the Kick Your Way to Barcelona: The BEKO Grand Kick-off Challenge” Promo.

With BEKO Philippines awarding one (1) lucky winner with a tax-free, all-expense paid trip to Barcelona, Spain to watch an FC Barcelona match live in April 2017 (inclusive of a roundtrip ticket to and from Barcelona, hotel accommodation with breakfast, in land transfer, Barcelona city tour, & a VIP La Liga match Box Ticket), the promo attracted a number of Facebook followers to submit and post their creative selfies welcoming Beko’s arrival in the country with #HelloBekoPH.  Successful entries qualified for the Kick-Off Challenge that was held on January 14, 2017 at Sparta Philippines, a sports complex which houses the country’s only FIFA 1-star certified indoor soccer pitch.  The qualifying round aimed to select ten (10) participants who will move on to the final round on February 10.

During the Kick-Off Challenge qualifying round, each participant was given three (3) attempts within one (1) minute to try and kick the soccer ball inside a customized mock-up washing machine goal from a designated distance of twenty (20) feet.  Since only one (1) participant was successful in hitting the goal, a second round to determine the remaining final nine (9) participants was conducted with which each participant was allowed to kick the ball with unlimited chances within one (1) minute from a nearer distance of fifteen (15) feet.
