Here are some notes about the day and the venue:
Keep up to date with live scores and results throughout the day: https://tournifyapp.com/live/kentu12g2026
There will be no access to the venue until 9am, but from then on, the clubhouse will be open for refreshments and food throughout the day.
Please no spectators to enter the warm up areas between the two pitches. This is for their safety and to provide a space for coaches to be with their players.
It will be a very busy day, so please leave dogs at home if you can! If you do bring your dog, they have to be on leads at all times and not enter buildings on any pitch areas unless needed for their owner's safety. And do bring and use poo bags!
Please note that any parents, players, coaches or match officials behaving in a way that is deemed unsuitable for a junior tournament will be asked to leave.
