The Portsmouth Festival of Football is aimed at Youth football teams both in the community of Portsmouth and extended to visiting teams from around the world. With the emphasis primarily on competitive football but also celebrating the social elements, fun and friendliness. Having a common interest to bring us together and establishing reasons to stay in touch. Football is our catalyst.

The Portsmouth Festival of Football (FA APPROVED-pending Aug 14) is an opportunity to work with and celebrate Portsmouth as a potential CITY OF FOOTBALL highlighted by the recent resurgance of Portsmouth Football Club. The fans of the club recently raised £275000 to purchase a new academy training facility which shows the enthusiasm and the passion of belief and interest in youth football that there is here in Portsmouth.

We asked the question ‘ Why not establish a football tournament worthy of it’s community and lets invite

others into our city to catch our bug.

First class facilities at the University of Portsmouth, currently being used by Portsmouth Football Club have meant an investment in grass pitches to meet the rigors of professional football as well as that of student sports. Our weekend tournament has the provision for overnight stays, car parking, breakfast, changing facilities, additional training facilities (with lights) and additional coaching opportunities. Portsmouth University are pleased to showcase their facilities and are looking forward to establishing the Festival of Football as a permanent fixture in the footballing calendar.
