Appendix
To clarify, a place may be reserved at any time, however, it will only be confirmed once full payment has been received. Entries will be based on a ‘first come – first served’ basis, with fully paid entries taking priority over unpaid reserved teams.
Tournament entry numbers are being reduced for this year, so we would suggest that you get your paid entry to us as soon as you are able:
- 20 places will be made available in the boys (mixed sex) age groups U7, U8, U9 U10, U11, U12 & U13.
- 5 places will be made available in the girls only age groups U9 & U11.
- 10 places will be made available in the girls only age group U13.
Refunds will be given if a replacement team can be found in the event that a confirmed team needs to cancel, or if Binfield Football Club cancels the event.
Subject to the number of teams that register, we aim for teams in each age group, with the exception of U7’s, to play 8 games in 2 phases (each game being 8 mins in duration). The U7 Boys will play, subject to the number of teams registered, 4 games (each game being 12 mins in duration).
Goals will be either 8’ x 4’(U7’s only) or 12’ x 6’ (all other age groups).
Car Parking
Car parking will be available in one of our car parks which are a 2 – 5 minute walk to the pitches. Disabled parking for blue badge holders will be available in the clubhouse car park with wheelchair access to the pitches. Please allow plenty of time to park your car as the narrow lanes close to the club do get extremely busy at the tournament registration times.
Car parking will be £5 to include a program and free access to the Binfield Junior Tournament app.
Timings
Please be aware that your age group may need to register from 08:30 and start games at 09:00, or may finish at 17:00/17:30
