Our events are organised in tournament formats. All our junior tournaments in 2027 are played at this season 2026/2027 age groups. The tournaments are open to grassroots teams of all abilities.

Prior to their tournament matches commencing, teams will line-up in the players' tunnel and have their names announced over the stadium's PA system as they emerge from the tunnel and walk out on to the pitch. They will also enjoy the exclusive opportunity to visit the home and away changing rooms.

All events include FA-qualified match officials, first aid services, live tournament fixtures and results website, medal and trophy presentations and the on-site management and support of our event staff and tournament director.

7-a-side Junior Tournaments played on 4 pitches

With 4 pitches set up on the main stadium pitch, we are able to deliver a great tournament format with group matches and then Finals. All teams play 5 matches of 12 minutes, so have a guaranteed 60 minutes of match time in the tournament. This is made up of 3 group matches and then Semi-Final and Final matches. Crucially, this format ensures that every team plays the same amount of football at the tournament and that the players fully enjoy their time at the stadium.

Following the group matches, teams will progress either to the Champions Cup or Shield Competition. Not only does this ensure that all teams play their Finals matches against teams of a similar standard, it also means that the teams playing in the Shield Competition have the opportunity to win the Shield Final and take home a winners trophy.

Teams will spend around 5-6 hours at the stadium in total, the younger age groups (U8, U9, U10) tournaments take place from approximately 9am-2.30pm, with the older age groups (U11, U12, U13, U14) tournaments running from approximately 3pm-8.30pm. There are usually 8 teams playing in each age group tournament.

These timings are naturally subject to confirmation when the exact number of teams in each age group is finalised. Please note that the U10 & U11 tournaments may take place during either the morning or afternoon session, depending on the balance of bookings across the age groups.

At the end of the tournament, following each team's final match, we award medals and certificates to all players and there will be trophy presentations for the winner and runners-up teams in both the Champions Cup and Shield Competition in each age group.

European Tournaments & Youth Tournaments

In addition to our Junior 7-a-side Tournaments at Premier League and Football League stadiums, we also offer a range of tournaments in Europe and also tournaments for older age groups.

Our European tournaments offer the opportunity to experience playing on the pitch at iconic European venues in both Spain and France, including at the Parc des Princes, home of back-to-back Champions League winners PSG!

Our Youth Tournaments are designed for U14 and U15 age group teams and give them the opportunity to play on larger pitches. With just 2 pitches set up on the stadium pitch, we can hold 9-a-side tournaments, which ensures that teenage players fully enjoy their time at the stadium.
