PUT 'EM UNDER PRESSURE
RTE are launching a brand new sports quiz show, Put 'Em Under Pressure, which will air on Sunday evenings in September on RTE 1 and are looking for sports teams for the audience and want the teams to come from as wide and varied sporting backgrounds as possible!
The show itself sees two teams of famous sports stars and pundits go head-to-head in this entertaining sports quiz. Consisting 8 episodes, the quiz show will be filmed in studio in RTE in Donnybrook from the 8th to the 11th of August in front of an audience each day.
With this in mind RTE are looking to get sports teams, clubs and supporters groups on board from right around the country to join the audience in each episode.
The clubs give their own representation through this, by wearing their club or team colours, crests, sporting attire etc (something representative of what their sport is).
The show is going to be entertaining and fun and will be a great day out for teams interested. We also want a good mix of sports involved, so whether the team or group consists 5 or 50!
As the show is being filmed in early August and places are limited, RTE would like to hear from teams as soon as possible who may be interested, for more information.
