 GAME 1 = HAFC  8-1 Crowland Crusaders  - HAFC started strongly playing pieces of nice play, testing Crowlands goalkeeper on numerous occasions. Crowland just started getting a foot hold into the match but after an attack of their own HAFC quickly counter attacked scoring a nice team goal. Crowlands looked deflated and shipped another 3 goals in quick succession. Credit to Crowland they carried on playing their own football and eventually scored well deserved goal, HAFC kept there head and finished the game in style with nice passing movement and scored another 4 just before the full time whistle.
 
GAME 2 = HAFC 4-4 Humberston - After the 1st game HAFC looked tired and Humberston took full adavantage of this scoring an early goal, then in the next 5 minutes things got from bad to worst for HAFC losing another 3 goals on the bounce. HAFC refused to give up though peppering the Humberston goal before grabbing a goal. Humberston panicked and couldn't string any decent amount of passes together, HAFC kept going and grabbed another goal. HAFC were playing very well but time was against them, regardless they kept putting pressure on the Humberston goal and were again rewarded by another goal, Humberston needed the full time whistle but it didn't come and HAFC grabbed a late goal putting the full time result to 4-4.
 
GAME 3 = Humberston 9-1 Crowland Crusaders - After the late equaliser in the previous Humberston were rearing to go and put the last game behind them, this was clear from the 1st whistle starting like a house on fire grabbing 4 goals within the the first 5 minutes. Crowland looked like they had their work cut out again but they carried on playing to their strengths and scored a superv solo goal. Humberston carried on playing this time and scored another 5 before the full time whistle.
 
GAME 4  = HAFC 6-2 Crowland Crusaders - Crowland are a greatly improving team and showed this going 1-0 up in the early stages of this game, but then they switched off for just a split second resulting in HAFC scoring a wonderfully worked goal. Crowland then tried to score another goal of there own but got caught up the attacking end of the field meaning HAFC had a free run at goal when they eventually squared the ball and their striker slotted the ball home into the empty net. Crowland didn't give up though and played nice flowing futsal and scored a well worked team goal. HAFC showed there true futsal skills though and played the game into there own hands after scoring a couple of quick goals in reply to Crowlands equaliser. HAFC finished the game on top showing another 2 before the full time whistle.
 
GAME 5 = HAFC 1-2 Humberston -  The first 6/7 minutes were almost like a chest with both teams weighing each other up, but then almost at a flick of a switch the game came to life with a goalkeeping error giving HAFC the lead. The game became stretched and almost like a cup match with Humberston chasing a must needed goal, but as the game started to fizzle out a freal goal occured with Humberston's goalkeeper punting the ball forward, this dipped the HAFC goalkeeper resulting in a goal, Humberston couldnt believe their luck. Both teams tried to get the winner and it came, after a long hopeful ball from the Humberston defence lead to their striker being able to finish into the net putting the game to bed.
 
GAME 6  =  Humberston 9-3 Crowland Crusaders - After Humberston's skin of their teeth win in their last game they started poorly after a well worked Crowlands goal put them 1-0 down. Humberston struggled, but another optimisitc long ball being finished led to them pulling the scores back on level terms. Humberston turned on the style scoring another 2 goals back to back. Crowland carried on playing and after a lapse of concentration in the Humberston defence Crowlands netted a goal, Humberston started pushing to high up the field which lead to another goal by Crowland. After that Humberston started playing well scoring another 6 before the full time whistle.
 
OVERALL = An excellent tournament and all teams were a credit to themselves, the final table follows:


 Team                W      D     L    GD    P
1) Humberston     3       1     0   +18   10
2) HAFC              2       1     1   +10   7     
3) Crowlands       0       0     4   -25    0
