Organised by staff at Audley Community Centre the competition aimed to bring youngsters together in sport. Over a hundred youngsters packed into the centre throughout the day.

For the first time clubs from outside of Blackburn were invited to play and it was a Preston side, Al-Ansaar who celebrated a famous win.
