The aim of the event was to promote the Charter Standard programme
for schools and to highlight the good practice that takes place in
London FA Schools. The number of Charter Standard Schools in London
has now grown to 124 and as more and more schools achieve Charter
Standard status this annual event will grow in numbers.
There were
trophies awarded to the winners and runners up of each category and
in keeping with the principles of the Charter Standard, A Fair Play
award was also presented to one team in each category that
demonstrated the best conduct (judged by the referees).

their time to support the event and the London Playing Fields
Foundation for providing the venue and allowing staff to support the
