Important information regarding the Aylesbury 10’s Festival
Games will start at 10.00 sharp and will finish mid afternoon depending on how well each age group keeps to time.
In each age group, 8 teams are expected and they will be divided into two groups of four, playing round-robin competitions. The winners of Group A will play the second of Group B (and vice versa) in a semi-final, with a final to decide festival champions. There will also be a play-off for the Group third and fourth teams, with a plate final.
Further detailed information will be supplied once we are clear how many teams per age group enter.
Squad size and team numbers
Maximum squad size will be 20, but only 15 players can be played in any one game. If Clubs wish to enter two sides , we will do our very best to include them but this will depend on the overall response.
