Getting your 2010 ticket is easier than many people seem to think. Ticket sales are administered into 5 chances to make sure all fans get fair and equal opportunities to seats.
Team-specific Tickets: if you want to follow specific teams closely you will need to buy this special package known as TST. In order to do this you will have to apply for a minimum of 3 matches and a maximum of 7. In the case of a teams elimination, these tickets are not forfeited but may be used for another team.
The TST3 package: provides entrance to your teams 3 group matches.
The TST4 package: provides you with 3 group matches and a stage game.
The TST7 package: entrance to games up to the final and 3rd place playoff.
