Text Box: Host Company
The host Company is shown for each group in capital letters.

As per last year, there have been insufficient offers to host an afternoon of football. Accordingly, the Companies marked in bold italics are in a group(H) where the host Company has been designated*. Whilst it is appreciated that this is an imposition, the arrangement appears to have worked over the last couple of years and team members have enjoyed some good games. Although one Company has been designated as host, please can all teams in that group offer to assist and help with the arrangements.  

Age Limits
All boys playing in the competition must have been born between 1 September 1990 and 31 August 1994.

General
All matches must be played by 17th January 2008 No extensions can be granted and any games not completed will be declared void.

The route to the final will be:
Round One
The top team per group plus the four teams with the highest goal difference go through to the next round - ie twelve teams. The four goal difference teams will be drawn from the groups where five or six teams play on the day. Therefore, if you play in a group of four or less on the day, you must play to win. If it is a group of five or six on the day, then the second placed team may qualify for round two on goal difference.

Round Two 
Will be played by 28th March 2009 with two groups where the winner of each group goes through to the National Final to be held in Northern Ireland on 25th April 2009. There are two places for England in the Final.

Score cards are enclosed and the home Company should send the completed score card to the Competitions 
Co-ordinator within THREE days of the completion of the games.
