“We would like to thank Cheshire Oaks School Sports Partnership and all the schools who took part for their support. Now in its Fourth year the annual tournament is proving as popular as ever. As a Club we are dedicated to providing footballing opportunities for as many local children as possible. Hosting events such as the inter-schools tournament gives children not currently playing for Frodsham JFC the chance to enjoy football in an organised and safe environment. We would also like to congratulate all the players whose efforts, enthusiasm and sportsmanship made the tournament such a great event.”
