This annual event is sponsored by Nedgroup Investment (IOM) Ltd and the club is grateful for the company's continuing support of this event. Players can have all the coaching they want but putting those skills to the test can only be tried in competition. This event is not just for Albany juniors but for all juniors at Island clubs schools plus any visiting players. The more the merrier and  fresh faces on the other side of the net make playing much more of a challenge.
