Group C began with NHBC taking on Premier Medical. NHBC had qualified for the Prague Trophy courtesy of winning the St James Urban Living Tournament in the UK. So, whilst debutants to European competition we had some idea of their quality. Premier Medical were also making their debut and were an unknown quantity. It would be interesting to see how the two teams would fare. What ensued was a great game to get Group C underway. The two sides shared the spoils in a six goal thriller with Amarjit Nadal scoring a brace either side of a Harinder Sandhu strike for NHBC. Similarly, for Premier Medical Jason Powell scored a brace either side of a goal from Wells Powell. A point each ensuring both teams were off the mark in Group C.

Next up was West Germany and Kehar Club. The burning question in this group was which Kehar Club would turn up? This tournament marked their third appearance and their two previous appearances hadproduced two wildly differing results. In the 2007, Kehar Club became the Prague Masters champions but 12 months on they found themselves bottom of their group with just one point in the 2008 Prague Masters. The West Germany team came from the same stable as East Germany and were expected to also provide a strong challenge. As it turned out, it was an in form Kehar Club that turned up to compete a 5-1 victory over a slow-starting West Germany (maybe due to the previous nights exploits!). Jan Sekerka claimed the first hat-trick of the day with further goals from Jan Cihal and Lukas Ostry.

The final team to get underway was DHL Prague Red who took on NHBC. Now for all you budding stattos out there we have a nugget for you. Our games in Prague usually guarantee goals and in fact after a massive 108 games in Prague we had never had a 0-0 draw. That run was to come to an end in this fixture though as DHL Prague Red claimed a point from their opening game and NHBC were proving draw specialists with their second draw in as many games. Congratulations to the two defences and two goalkeepers.

Premier Medical were looking to build upon their opening draw whilst West Germany were looking to bounce back from their defeat at the hands of Kehar Club. A closely contested fixture saw Harry Brunjes Junior (aka The Poet) break the deadlock to put Premier Medical ahead. A second goal for Wells Powell (aka Wazza) sealed the game though as Premier Medical won 2-0. Work to do for West Germany in their final two games.

Game 5 of Group C saw an all-Czech tie between DHL Prague Red and Kehar Club. These two sides met in the opening game of Group A in the 2008 Prague Masters. On that occasion DHL Prague edged out their local rivals 4-3. The 2008 Prague Trophy saw revenge for Kehar Club as they turned defeat to victory in another tight game, winning by a margin of 3-2. The highlight of the game a second successive hat-trick for Jan Sekerka who, even at this early stage, was emerging as a favourite for the top goalscorer award. Cillian O'Donoghue and Rupert Baltrock scoring the goals for DHL Prague Red.

Draw specialists NHBC then met West Germany who were desperate for a win to turn around their fortunes. It looked as if this game could have ended up another draw but one goal in seven would seperate these two sides. The deciding goal falling in favour of West Germany as they won 4-3. Pete Snelling (2), Jules Leyland and Ted Aplin their heroes. Amarjit Nadal (2) and Harinder Sandhu the goalscorers again for NHBC. Amarjit Nadal taking his own personal tally to four for the tournament. The result saw West Germany jump from 5th to 3rd and with one game to go the competiton was alive for them.

The next game saw the top two, Kehar Club and Premier Medical come face-to-face. The two teams had unbeaten records to protect but rather than settle for a draw both teams sought a victory that would guarantee their progress through to the Cup. It was Kehar Club who claimed victory and take a strangle-hold on this group. They jumped to 9 points and opened up a 5 point lead at the top of the table. Maybe the most impressive thing about this win is that they managed it without goals from Jan Sekerka. Their goals this time coming from Pavel Trminket and Josef Rakosnik. Harry Brunjes Jnr with the goal for Premeir Medical which proved not to be enough on this occasion.

A resurgent West Germany took on DHL Prague Red who were looking to respond to their defeat to Kehar Club. The game finished 2-2 which neither helped nor hindered either team. Gareth Evers and David Janecek goals for DHL Prague Red were cancelled out by Pete Snelling and Ted Aplin goals for West Germany. The result meant West Germany finished on four points and had to wait to see if that would be good enough for the Cup. They would have to rely on NHBC failing to beat Kehar Club and DHL Prague Red failing to beat Premier Medical in the final two group games to qualify for the Cup. DHL Prague, on two points, had their fate in their own hands to some degree but it would not be easy against 2nd placed Premier Medical.

First up though was group leaders Kehar Club against NHBC. The form book suggested a Czech win and the form book was proved right despite a third brace of the tournament for NHBC's Amarjit Nadal. Kehar Club went on to make it 4 wins from 4 as they rattled in 5 goals from Petr Kaminski, Jan Sekerka, Lukas Ostry, Martin Sekerka and an own goal.

Premier Medical versus DHL Prague Red was the 10th and final game of Group C. Premier Medical were playing for pride with Cup qualification assured already. There was much more riding on this for DHL Prague Red though where only a win was good enough. A win would see them jump up to second such was the tightness in this group. A win was beyond them though and although Daniel Finlay-Notman found the back of the net the strike was overshadowed by goals from Wells Powell, Harry Brunjes Jnr and James Emery. The 3-1 win securing second place for Premier Medical whilst DHL Prague Red edged ahead of NHBC on goal difference to finish 4th and earn a bye to the Plate Semi-Finals.
