The tournament features fast-paced 5v5 and 6v6 matches. Each match is designed to be engaging and full of energy, providing players an opportunity to enjoy the thrill of competition while developing their skills in a fun and safe environment.

When and where will the HYA tournament take place?

The HYA tournaments are one-day events across Spring and Summer. Specific dates will be announced once arrangements are finalised. Families are encouraged to check our website, emails and WhatsApp Community group for the latest updates and announcements.

What should my child bring and wear to the HYA tournament?

Your child should arrive at the tournament in suitable clothing for physical activity. We recommend comfortable sportswear, such as a sports t-shirt, shorts or a tracksuit. While HYA will provide the official football match shirt for the matches, appropriate footwear is essential. Please ensure your child wears football boots with plastic moulded studs, as metal studs, trainers, or AstroTurf boots are not allowed on our 4G artificial playing surface. Additionally, for health and safety reasons, all participants must wear football shin pads during the matches.

What happens if my child cannot attend on the day of the tournament?

Please note that, in accordance with HYA T+Cs, we are unable to offer refunds for non-attendance. We recommend ensuring your child is available on the tournament day before registering to avoid any inconvenience.
