Date:
Saturday 12th June 2021
Venue:
Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys 3G & Grass Pitches, St John's Rd, Tunbridge Wells TN4 9TX
Format:
We hope to offer 8 places in each football age group and 5 in the futsal age group.
Each age-group is planned as follows:
Saturday AM -Under 8, Under 10 & Under 11. Kick off 9am, finish by 12pm
Saturday PM -Under 7 & Under 9. Kick off 1pm, finish by 4pm
The duration of play will be 12 minutes for each match in all age groups.
Age qualification for each age-group will be the same as your League registration for the (current) 2020/2021 season. Players need not be registered with your Club since managers, with next season in mind, may wish to try out new players. You can enter more than one team in each age-group, but any individual player may only play for one team during the tournament.
The Under 7s & Under 8s will play 5-a-side with a suggested squad size of 8.
The Under 9s & Under 10s will play 7-a-side, with a suggested squad size of 10.
The under 11s will play 5-a-side with a suggested squad size of 8.
Entry Confirmation:
Please complete the entry form and pay via BACS:
Once both the form and payment have been received confirmation emails will be sent to successful teams.
Referees: We hope to have experienced referees officiating all matches as they improve the overall competition. We will also offer new referees a great environment to practice as they begin their journey.
If you are an interested referee please email fiesta@firstclassfootball.com
Sportsmanship:
It has been a difficult season for everyone, the fact that so many local football tournaments have been cancelled proves that we are still facing challenges. We hope that all players, club representatives and spectators enjoy either playing or watching the football and we would encourage everyone to place their emphasis on sportsmanship & being a great team mate/coach & supporter.
F2 Academy Teams:
Each age group will have F2 Academy teams participating in them and our F2 players look forward to playing with and against their friends in local teams. The concept for the tournament was born from the lack of playing opportunities all our members have faced this season. The tournament is not a platform for them or any team to run away with games and we certainly do not expect that to be the case. Each F2 team is tasked with applying our playing philosophy and each individual challenged to explore their Individual Development Program targets. We look forward to watching this in action, if you have any questions please just ask via info@firstclassfootball.com
