ARRIVAL - Please allow plenty of time to travel and parking at the venue. Parking is limited at Poolfoot Farm so you may well have to park on adjoining roads and walk to the astro turf pitches. As you will see from the fixture schedule, we have lots of games to get through so games MUST START ON TIME OR WE WILL RUN OVER There will be a team manager briefing in front of the children's play park at 12:45pm ready for our first games to kick off at 1PM PROMPT! The later we start, the later we finish ;)
FIXTURES & FORMAT - All fixtures and results will be accessed via the Tournify link at the bottom of this email, please share this link with your wider community as parents can then monitor your teams progress remotely. Please note that the times of the games are a GUIDE and will not be gospel however, we will be making every attempt to stick to the timings on the day. All games will be 10 minutes one way and teams will be 7 a side with an unlimited squad and substitutions. ALL PLAYERS MUST BE WEARING SHIN PADS. We will be adhering to the no heading rule at this event and will go through the ruling of this at the team manager briefing.
THE GOOD OLD BRITISH WEATHER - Please keep an eye on the weather report and pack accordingly. The event is due to take place on astro turf so the surface will not be an issue however, should we feel that the elements will have too much of a detrimental effect on participants experience of the event then we will make a call the day before the event..........so if you don't hear from us, take it the event is going ahead! We have attempted to maximise the use of pitches and minimise waiting time accordingly so please dress warm, particularly in-between games and be ready for your next fixture.
SMILE AND ENJOY! - This event will be officiated by young leaders so please ensure you, your players and the parents representing your school show their support.
