FORMAT: U9 Boys- to ensure the U9’s have plenty of playing time I have added a final match at the end of the Saturday league. These final matches will decide their placing.

U11 Girls will play each other twice over the two days to find out placing’s.

All age groups apart from the boys U9 are straightforward leagues on Friday and Saturday.

The tournament is split into 2 League formats, Champions League and the Premier League. For Fridays league the teams have been split into 2 groups, A + B. The top 3 teams from each age group will play the Champions League with the bottom 3 teams playing the Premier League. I have arranged the fixtures on Saturday so that the last fixture will see the winners from both groups play each other, hopefully it will feel like a final and decide the champions.

Groups of 5: Top two teams from each group will qualify for the Champions League with the bottom playing the Premier League. The Highest accumulated points for finishing third will qualify for the Champions League, lowest will play the Premier League. If both teams finish with the same points we will revert to RULE 8.
