Nantwich Town’s annual ‘Christmas Cup’ kids football tournament took place on the new FIFA grade 3G pitch at the Club’s Swansway Stadium.
Matches involved U7s, 8s, 9s and 10s were played on a six vs six basis with 10-minute group games, with teams progressing into either a Champions League or Europa League format.
The new Chair of the Football Association Debbie Hewitt dropped in to Nantwich Town to view their new 3G facilities.
Ms Hewitt MBE is the first female Chair of the FA and is also the first female Vice-President of FIFA.
Along with the Olympics, the FIFA World Cup is the gold standard of international sporting events.
Worldwide, FIFA estimates that five billion people will tune in to the Qatar tournament when it kicks off later this year.
