Girls' League Host Futsal Tournament
Over the course of December 2018 and January 2019, the Oxford Mail Girls’ Football League hosted its annual Futsal tournament for teams ranging from Under-10s to Under-16s, with the winners now going on to represent Oxfordshire in the regional finals of the FA Youth Futsal Cup.
Across two weekends in December, a number of fixtures were played ahead of a finals day which took place on 5 January 2019 at Iffley Road Sports Centre in Oxford.
At the end of a fantastic event, which was the result of a lot of hard work and dedication on the part of the Oxford Mail Girls’ Football League’s volunteers, the winners of the county competition will now head to the regional finals in the coming weeks.
Congratulations to the winners in each age group:
Under-10s – Summertown Stars Jayhawks Under-10s
Under-12s – Mansfield Road Under-12s (above)
Under-14s – Headington Youth Under-14s (below)
Under-16s – Carterton Under-16s (main picture)
James Shiplee, Football Development Officer and Women and Girls’ Lead at Oxfordshire FA, said: “It’s great to see the Oxford Mail Girls’ Football League have once again embraced the FA Futsal Cup and provided the opportunity for girls in the league to compete for the chance to represent the county. It’s through the hard work of the committee that this has come together and they deserve great praise for that.”
Best of luck to each of the winning teams in the regional finals.
