All schools not shown in Round 1 have a bye into Round 2.

Note – schools scheduled to play a “Late Entry” should check the KSFA website for any updates. The deadline for late entries in this competition is Saturday 14th September.

If the result of a game has not been submitted by midday on the Monday following the deadline date, and no information relating to a legitimate delay in playing it has been received, the game will be determined by the KSFA by the toss of a coin.

The Home school must obtain a neutral qualified referee who is registered with the County FA, for Quarter-Final and Semi-Final matches.

REMINDERS

  • Players must be over 11 and under 13 as at midnight 31st August/1st September 2024 (i.e. in Years 7 & 8 only in the 2024-2025 academic year)
  • Players who play in this competition are ineligible to play in the KSFA Under 12 Denis O’Donovan Trophy, the KSFA Under 12 Kengate-Beasley Trophy (except schools with fewer than 50 boys in Year 7), the KSFA U13 B team Cup or the KSFA Under 13 Alessia Russo Girls Cup. Schools that breach this requirement will be removed from all applicable competitions.
  • Matches must be played on or before the deadlines. Matches can only be played in midweek by mutual agreement – failing such agreement, they must be played on a Saturday. If the result of a game has not been submitted by midday on the Monday following the deadline date, and no information relating to a delay in playing it has been received, the game will be determined by the KSFA by the toss of a coin.
  • The winning school is responsible for entering the result (and the goalscorers for both teams) on the KSFA website within two hours – failure to do so may incur a fine of £10.00.
  • Schools are expected to fulfil their responsibilities to their own players and to other schools in the competition - withdrawal from the competition may be subject to a fine of £50.00.
