St.Albans City Youth hosted the 2nd Hertfordshire Disability Football festival at the home of City Youth, Highfield Park.

This year’s festival saw 12 teams taking part including the disability teams from Millwall, MK Dons, Chelsea and Spurs. Hertfordshire was well supported with not only St Albans City Youth FC but also Hitchin Town FC and Bedwell Rangers FC. In addition Folkestone Invicta FC travelled all the way from Kent to take part.
All players taking part received a medal as a memento of the day, provided by our festival sponsors.. The final match of the day saw Millwall FC play Spurs Amputee in what turned out to be a game fit for Wembley with Millwall just edging ahead by one goal in extra time.

Mervyn Morgan, Trustee of St Albans City Youth FC said it was a great day, not only for those taking part on the field but also everyone who helped out. The main aim of the festival is to let players enjoy themselves and have some fun; this objective was achieved in abundance.
