Not technically CTFC players, but representing CTFC at the EFL Kids Cup south finals were LONGLEVENS Junior School. They beat Stevenage, Oxford and Charlton and drew against Exeter and Portsmouth. They then hammered Wycombe 3-0 in the semis and Bristol Rovers 4-0 in the final to win the tournament. Conceded just one goal in the tournament.

Their prize is to play Port Vale in the EFL Kids Cup Final at Wembley before the League One play off final in May!

I wonder if any of them will be in CTFC's youth system?

Well done them!
That's a great achievement and will be a brilliant occasion for them at Wembley.

What age group are they Shade?

Fair play to them - I hope they get to come out on the pitch before the next home game and be applauded.

I've been told by a teacher at Leckhampton that it was Longlevens Junior School that competed.

Damnit, yes. Stupid brain thought “don’t put Leckhampton by mistake…”

10 and 11 year olds, year 5’s and 6’s, I’m assuming.
