Upcoming events?

Are there any upcoming tournaments in the ME that are open to teams from the US? The team's playing level is semi-professional with many ex-pro players on the team.

Tournaments like Dubai international (already done late in 08 this year) and harriri tournament thats usually done before the season might be interested in a team from the USA to play in especially the dubai tournament. Once a team from Ukraine (or romania i dont remember) participated.
