A futsal tournament in Stevenage has helped support the Stevenage Community Trust.
Sixteen Under 10s teams took part in games at Stevenage Arts and Leisure Centre on Saturday, December 2, with big names such as Fulham, Cambridge United and MK Dons competing with other academy sides and grassroots clubs.
It was Luton who emerged victorious, beating Cambridge United 2-1 in a gripping Gold Cup final. In the Silver Cup, meanwhile, Stevenage Futsal won 3-2 to claim the trophy.
The action lasted more than six hours, with clubs competing for places in the Gold and Silver cups in the morning, then contesting for the silverware in the afternoon.
