The North West Trophy now in its 14th year has earned the reputation as being one of the leading youth soccer tournaments in the north of England. The tournament consistently attracts over 100 teams with many entries coming from England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales.

The football takes place at Stanley High School which has great facilities including changing rooms, showers, toilets, bouncy castles and plenty of parking.  The venue holds 6 full size and 5 mini pitches.  In the last few years we are honoured to welcome some of the biggest names in football, including Mark Wright, John Barnes and Paul Merson as special guests at our prestigious presentation evening, providing a wonderful finale to the tournament.
