Key rules and important notes

Please read these rules carefully before submitting your entry.

Except where noted standard rules will apply for the format of football being played (i.e. 5, 7, 9 a side)

Please note: As with previous years there will be cup and shield competitions in most sections meaning more games and more teams having a chance to reach a final and win a trophy.

For all age groups: Only winners and runners up of both the Cup and Shield receive medals.

The tournament is not open to academy teams.

The age groups will be as at 2025/26 season unless you are a Kent Youth League or Junior Premier League team where you will be required to play up a year.

Please note under FA Rule 4(a)(i) that a player who had not attained the age of 6 as of 31 August 2025 is not eligible to play in this tournament.

Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis and are strictly limited.

No spaces will be reserved until both entry form and payment is received.

Excluding Kings Hill Football Club, there is a limit of 2 teams per club per age group.

It is extremely disruptive for entered teams to subsequently drop out near the tournament date so please confirm availability with your players before entering.

The closing date for entries is 10th April 2026.

The entry fee for the tournament is £50 per team.

Please do not delay in returning your entry. In previous years, some age groups were oversubscribed by between 50% and 100%.
