Notes

  1. "2000 Viareggio Rules" (in Italian). Retrieved March 12, 2012.
  2. 2.0 2.1 In the tournament presentation Udoji United is mentioned as the team participating from Nigeria, while in non-official statistics it is substituted with Delta Force, another Nigerian team. Further confusion comes from the fact that in the official tournament statistics the team is not mentioned and Esperia Viareggio Italian local club is reported to have participated in the matches.
