Commenting on the popularity of the tournament, FITC Football Development Manager Darran Lovell said: "We really pride ourselves in providing a tournament that is inclusive and creates the right spirit and is enjoyed by all the players, family and spectators who attend and we hope that 2010 will be no exception.
"On the back of a season that has seen Norwich City promoted back into the Championship and the build up to the much anticipated World Cup in full flow. We would like to thank Aviva for once again sponsoring the event and we are all looking forward to hosting one of regions most popular tournaments."
The tournament is open to all boys Under-7 to Under-14 and girls Under-10 to Under-16 clubs of all abilities. A maximum of two teams per club can entered for each age group. Entry cost £15.00 per team. Teams MUST be affiliated to a County FA to enter. Winning teams will win the following prizes.
