Girls football is a key aspect of the ESF Festival of Football and 2015 is set to be another great year with over 150 girls teams expected to participate.

Girls tournaments are available for U10 to U16 teams at 4 of our very best festivals at Butlins Bognor Regis, Minehead and Skegness and Disneyland® Paris.

We’ve been delighted to welcome some of the leading names in ladies football at our UK girls festivals in recent years. Sue Smith, Casey Stoney, Jordan Nobbs, Martha Harris, Faye White and Emma Byrne have all made special guest appearances at ESF, giving every girl the opportunity to meet a role model from the ladies game. This always proves to be an extremely popular addition to ESF for the girls on tour.

At ESF we’re committed to girls football and hope to see the growth of the game continue throughout the UK. We will continue to provide well organised, well attended tournaments for girls teams of all abilities - so go on, make this season one to remember and join us for a great end of season tour.

On Tour at ESF

“ I’ve been working with ESF for a number of years and the girls always look like they’ve had a great time away on tour together. Going on tour can be a great experience for the girls and one they’ll look back on with fond memories with their friends in later years. I Hope to see you at ESF 2015!”

Casey Stoney Arsenal & England Ladies

“ESF really is a fantastic experience for everyone involved and I’m delighted to

be an ESF Ambassador for girls football. Teams come from all over the UK to

participate in the tournaments and it’s always nice to see teams from so many

different areas competing over the weekend. Having met so many of the players and

managers in recent years, it’s clear to see how much the girls benefit from taking part.“

In 2015 we will be staging two fantastic ESF festivals at Butlins Bognor Regis, over the May Day & Spring Bank Holiday weekends. The May Day festival is without doubt one of the UK’s premier youth football festivals and 2014 proved to be a record year, with over 185 teams participating. It’s the biggest event of its kind on the South Coast and is also supported by Arsenal Soccer Schools, with team training sessions available throughout the weekend.

With quality accommodation, fantastic facilities and superb entertainment, Butlins Bognor Regis is the perfect base for an unforgettable tour. The resort is crammed with a huge variety of sports and leisure facilities, exciting rides at the Funfair and great places to eat and drink. There’s the sub tropical Splash Waterworld, with flumes, wave machines and daredevil rides, the Multi-Sports Court with football and basketball courts, the Aerial Rope Course with climbing wall and zip wire, the Go Kart Track, Ten Pin Bowling and much more.

When the sun goes down, a buzz of excitement goes around the resort. Some of the UK’s most talented performers appear in the premier entertainment venues. With names and faces you’ll recognise from TV, tribute acts and live bands too, your team can enjoy the hottest entertainment every night!

There’s a great range of quality accommodation on resort with half board meal packages available. Those who crave a bit of luxury can book into one of Butlins’ superb new hotels – the brand new £25million Wave Hotel, the Shoreline Hotel with fantastic sea views, or the Ocean Hotel with its luxurious health spa – perfect for all the mums on tour!

There’s also a wide selection of places to eat and drink on resort. From celebrity chef Brian Turner’s family restaurant and the new 1950’s Diner, through to Papa John’s Pizza, SoHo Coffree Co., the Beachcomber Inn and Burger King.

Stuart Pearce, Matt Le Tissier, Chris Smalling, Sir Geoff Hurst, Sue Smith, Casey Stoney and Martha Harris have all made special guest appearances at our spectacular celebrity presentations at the Bognor Regis festivals in recent years, giving many boys and girls the opportunity to meet some of their idols.

So, if you’re looking for the ultimate touring experience in the South, then look no further. Call our team, reserve your place, and join us for a great end of season tour at ESF Bognor Regis.

The ESF festivals in Minehead are the biggest festivals of their kind in the South West with 200 boys and girls teams of all abilities participating. Staged at Minehead Town FC and the picturesque villages surrounding the town, the festival attracts teams from all over England, Wales and further afield every year.

The onsite facilities at Butlins are fantastic. There’s a huge variety of sports and leisure activities, the Splash Waterworld with flumes, slides and wave machines, superb evening entertainment venues and great places to eat and drink.

There’s the Aerial Rope Course with the stomach churning ‘leap of faith’ and climbing wall, the Multi Sports Court with football and basketball courts, the Funfair with free rides, the Go Kart Track, the Adventure Golf, the onsite Cinema, Ten Pin Bowling…. we could go on!

The evening entertainment is another key factor which really sets Butlins apart from all other holiday centres. There’s a huge variety of entertainment on offer in the premier entertainment venues. From top TV and music stars, to brilliant daytime shows and spectacular evening events, there’s amazing entertainment for the whole family.

There’s a great range of quality accommodation options available at Butlins Minehead to suit all budgets. The stylish chalets in the new £12million West Lakes village development are sure to be a big hit for those craving a bit of luxury. The West Lakes Village will be a beautifully serene place to rest your head after an exciting day at ESF.

Butlins half board dining plans always prove to be extremely popular with our teams on tour. There’s a wide selection of choices available and you can go back for seconds as many times as you like - perfect for young, hungry footballers! Guests who prefer the self catering option shouldn’t worry though, there’s also the Firehouse Grill, Pizza Hut, Burger King, the Sun & Moon with pub grub and Finnigan’s Fish & Chips, if you fancy a night off cooking!

Sir Geoff Hurst, John Barnes, Matt Le Tissier, Bryan Robson, Sue Smith and Casey Stoney have all appeared at our spectacular celebrity presentations at Butlins Minehead, capping off a memorable weekend for everyone involved.

So what are you waiting for?!! Call us today to reserve your place and make 2015 a year your players and supporters will never forget at ESF.

Butlins Minehead is something of a jewel in the crown for ESF. Located right on the beach, yet on the doorstep of the great wilderness of Exmoor National Park, it really is a magnificent setting for a family football festival.

Some of the UK’s most talented performers appear in Butlins’ West-End quality shows, including top names you’ll recognise from TV, tribute acts, live bands and more.

THE 2015 INTERNATIONAL YOUTH FESTIVAL OF FOOTBALL

2015 will be the fifth year of the International Youth Festival of Football at Disneyland® Paris.

Teams from France, England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Turkey and Brazil have participated in the Festival and the feedback couldn’t be better!

We’re delighted to be staging the International Festival again at Disneyland Paris, in the Easter Holidays in 2015. This superb festival is open to youth teams of all abilities from across Europe and even further afield, combining the magic and thrilling rides at Disney, with a fantastic International Youth Football Tournament.

We offer the choice of a fully-inclusive travel, accommodation and festival package or a self drive package option.

Our fully-inclusive package includes return coach travel from your club in the UK, entry into the football tournament, accommodation at Disney’s Davy Crockett Ranch® with breakfast, 3 day Hopper Ticket to Disneyland® Park and Walt Disney Studios® Park, celebration dinner and free tour organiser places.

Day 1 - Weds 8 April Our coach will collect you from your club in the morning and transport your party to Disneyland Paris where our tour managers will check you into your accommodation.

Days 2, 3 & 4 - Thurs 9- Sat 11 April Tournament matches will take place throughout the late afternoon and evening, with all teams participating on all three days. All party members will receive a 3 day Hopper Ticket so everyone will have access to Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park when not playing football.

On Saturday evening the trophy presentation ceremony and a celebration dinner will take place in Disney® Village.

Day 5 - Sun 12 April After breakfast you will depart Disneyland Paris and travel back by coach to your club.

YOUR ACCOMMODATION

After each fantastic day of football and fun, you can relax in the evening back at Disney’s Davy Crockett Ranch®. The Ranch offers cabin style accommodation and provides breakfast each morning. It also has a superb swimming pool which is available free of charge to guests.

DISNEYLAND® PARIS

Disneyland® Paris is Europe’s favourite leisure destination and it’s not hard to see why. Disneyland® Park will amaze children of all ages, not to mention the adults! There are thrilling rides and attractions including Big Thunder Mountain, Phantom Manor, Indiana Jones™ and the Temple of Peril, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain: Mission 2 and Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast(1).

In Walt Disney Studios® Park it’s “Lights, camera... and lots of action!” all the way as you wander through the studio lots, finding

yourself on set at Disney Studio 1, witnessing jaw-dropping stunts and awesome special effects, behind-the-scenes glimpses of the colourful world of Disney animation, and learning some of the secrets of TV and cinema production.

Big thrill-seekers will head straight for Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith. Strap yourself in and hold on tight as you are shot from 0-60 in 2.8 seconds before looping and twisting your way around ‘night-time L.A.!’ Catch your breath before experiencing the meteor showers of Armageddon Special Effects. Also, don’t miss The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™(2). Brave the creepy facade of a once glamorous hotel for a jolt back in time. Board a phantom elevator, shoot up 13 floors and brace yourself for a thrilling plummet ... but beware! The experience just got scarier. You rocket back up only to plummet down yet again.

For our full Festival Information Pack, including travel arrangements, accommodation details, festival content, tour itineraries and booking form please call ESF 01664 566360.

FOR TEAMWEAR ENQUIRIES, PLEASE CONTACT [email protected]

HOW TO BOOK 1. Select a venue and call ESF Events on 01664 566360 to check availability.

2. Reserve a place. We will make a provisional booking free of charge which will hold your team a place for 2 weeks.

3. Return the Team Registration Form (P33-34) and Team Registration Fee. We will then acknowledge your entry to the festival and send you your accommodation booking information.

4. Book your accommodation with a deposit of £30pp. You will then be advised of your final balance, which will be due 56 days prior to your tour.

IMPORTANT: Accommodation for your whole party, including players, families, managers and supporters, must be booked through ESF Events. If members of your party do not book their accommodation through ESF Events, the team will not be permitted to participate in the festival.

UK FESTIVAL ITINERARY Friday: No football is played on the day of arrival, so teams can relax and get settled into their accommodation (check in from 4pm) and enjoy the evening’s entertainment. A briefing meeting for managers & coaches will take place on Friday evening. Saturday & Sunday: There’s an electric atmosphere around the pitches as the action starts and ESF kicks off. All teams will play group stage matches on both days. Where required, knock out matches will take place following the group stages. The celebrity presentation will take place on the Sunday evening. Monday: No football is played on the Monday. Teams therefore have the option of travelling home on the Sunday evening or Monday (check out 10am). NOTE TO ENGLISH TEAMS Following the Football Association Youth Development Review, the amount of competitive football teams can play in their season is now restricted in certain age groups. However, the FA have confirmed that ESF falls outside of these restrictions, so you can participate in ESF without limiting the amount of competitive football you play at home during the season. Teams can also choose to participate in ESF on a non-competitive basis in all age groups if they prefer.

FESTIVAL RULES, FIXTURES & FINAL BRIEFING A full final briefing email will be sent to all participating teams 7-10 days before the festival takes place. The final briefing will include fixtures, schedules and the festival rules, which have been sanctioned by the appropriate National Football Association. QUALIFICATION FOR TOURNAMENT All teams attending ESF must be affiliated to a County, Area or School Football Association. Centre of Excellence and Academy teams affiliated to professional clubs and ‘representative’ sides are not permitted to enter the festival. TEAM/CLUB REGISTRATION FEES 4/5-a-side = £99 per team (inc. VAT)7-a-side = £139 per team (inc. VAT)9-a-side = £159 per team (inc. VAT)11-a-side = £189 per team (inc. VAT)

Or Club Registration fee (unlimited teams) = £399 (inc. VAT)

Team/Club Registration fees are non-refundable.

We’re proud to support the NSPCC at ESF 2015. £5 will be donated to NSPCC (Registered Charity Numbers 216401 and SC037717) for each team that registers to participate in the 2015 ESF Festival of Football.

PLAYER REGISTRATION All teams will be required to complete a Player Registration Form, which includes a passport-sized photograph of each player to be registered for the festival. These forms will be verified by your club secretary to confirm that all details are correct. The committee will retain a copy of this form in the event that it should be necessary to follow up a query about a player’s age. Teams are also required to bring either league registration documents or appropriate identification (copy of passport or birth certificate) for all players to the festival as proof of age.

GUEST PLAYERS If some of your own players are unable to attend, leaving you short of a full team, it will be possible for you to register a maximum of two ‘guest players’ for the festival. ‘Guest players’ must produce documentary evidence to your club secretary to prove that they are the correct age and they must bring these documents with them to the festival.

AGE QUALIFICATION DATES ENGLISH & WELSH VENUES At venues under the jurisdiction of the English FA and the FA of Wales, the following age qualifications apply. Boys and girls are permitted to play together in all age groups.

SCOTTISH & FRENCH VENUES At the Ayr and Paris festivals, the following age qualifications apply in accordance with all youth football played in Scotland and France. Boys and girls are permitted to play together in all age groups.

SPECIAL DISPENSATION Where National Associations employ different age group qualification dates (i.e. 1st September as per the English FA), their domestic age levels will be accepted. Therefore an English U12 team would play in the U12 section at the Ayr and Paris Festivals.

TROPHIES & AWARDS All players will receive a quality trophy as a memento of ESF. There are also individual awards for the full squad of the winners and runners-up, a Champions trophy for the winning team in each age group. The Prostar Fair Play Awards and Mitre Golden Ball Award are also presented in each age group.

PLEASE NOTE: In accordance with the Scottish Youth Football Association rules, all mini soccer at the Ayr Festivals will be non-competitive and results will not be recorded. All players will receive a quality participation trophy from a football celebrity to ensure all the children feel like winners.

SUBSTITUTES Up to five substitutes in 5-a-side teams and seven substitutes in all other formats can be named and used during each game. Players who have been substituted can re-enter the game.

KICK OFF TIMES & PITCH LOCATIONS To ensure you have as much time as possible to enjoy your holiday, the earliest kick-off will be 10.00am and matches are played within a close proximity of the holiday centres.

TRANSPORT Teams are responsible for organising their own transport to and from the pitches whilst at the festival. At the Ayr festival, there is a bus service between the Holiday Park and the football pitches for which weekend passes are available to purchase for £5 per person.

WATCH OUT-SCOUTS ABOUT Scouts from some of the biggest clubs in the UK have been spotted at ESF. These include Arsenal, Manchester Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Celtic, Newcastle, Leicester City, Spurs, Everton, Leeds, Manchester City and many more.

EXCHANGE OF PENNANTS Although not compulsory, it is customary for teams to exchange a pennant or small memento before each game, in keeping with the spirit of the Festival.

CHILD PROTECTION ESF Events support the Football Association’s Child Protection Policy. For a copy of the ‘Child Protection and Practice Handbook’ call the FA/NSPCC Child Protection Hotline on 0808 800 5000. All ESF tournament organisers are CRB checked.

REFEREES Independent, qualified referees are appointed for all festival matches. They are paid match fees by ESF Events and are accommodated free of charge, with meals provided.

LOCAL TEAMS Teams from the local area where the festivals are staged are permitted to apply for entry by returning the Team Registration Form. However, we cannot guarantee a place in the Festival until the numbers of touring teams are finalised in each age group. At this stage, if additional teams are required in a given age group, applications from local teams will be accepted on a first-come first-served basis.

DATA PROTECTION ESF Events will use the personal information that you provide to process your booking and provide your tour. We may also need to pass your information to third party service providers such as Butlins and Haven. The Group Leader for each booking has the authority to discuss all accommodation bookings made under the team booking with ESF and representatives from the holiday centres if required. It is the Group Leaders responsibility to inform all other members of your party what information you are providing, and what we may use it for.

WRISTBANDS You will be allocated one wristband for each member of your party booked through ESF Events. Please be aware that people without a wristband will not be able to participate in the festival, attend the presentation ceremony or enter evening entertainment venues at the holiday centre.

ACCOMMODATION IMPORTANT: Accommodation for your whole party, including players, families, managers and supporters, must be booked through ESF Events. If members of your party do not book their accommodation through ESF Events, the team will not be permitted to participate in the festival. The only exception to this is ‘local’ teams who are invited to participate in the festival to ensure the best possible format in each age group.

Accommodation will be allocated strictly on a first-come first-served basis. All sizes and grades of accommodation are subject to availability. If you select a particular size or grade of accommodation which is no longer available, you will be offered the nearest alternative. Accommodation will always be available once your registration has been accepted but we cannot guarantee your first choice of accommodation.

UNOCCUPIED BEDS: In cases where a unit of accommodation is booked leaving unoccupied beds, a full subsidy will be charged. I.e If 3 people book a 4 berth unit of accommodation, they would have to pay for 4 people. Infants under the age of 2 years, who go free if you bring along your own cot, do not count towards the occupancy of a unit.

At all Butlins resorts you can hire a cot for a fee of £10 (linen is not provided) or pay a supplement of £35 if an infant under 2 sleeps in a bed.

At all Haven Parks you can hire a cot for a fee of £7 (linen is not provided).

For full Terms & Conditions of the holiday centres and full details of accommodation and facilities, please refer to the relevant holiday company website and the ESF accommodation booking information.

ADULT TO CHILD RATIOS There is a minimum adult to child ratio of 1 to 2 at all Butlins resorts and 1 to 3 at all Haven parks. At least one responsible adult over the age of 21 must occupy each unit of accommodation.

ACCOMMODATION DEPOSITS & FINAL BALANCE Accommodation deposits at all venues are £30 per person. On receipt of your Team Registration Form, the accommodation booking information will be forwarded to the Group Leader. You will need to book accommodation with a deposit of £30 per person by a set date, normally 3 weeks after your Team Registration Form is received. The final balance will be due no later than 56 days before the festival takes place.

INSURANCE The 2015 ESF Festival of Football is covered for ‘Public Liability’ insurance by ESF Events Ltd. However, this does not cover individual teams or ‘person to person’ public liability, personal accident or injury whilst attending the festival. We strongly recommend that all participating teams, if they are not already covered, should take out insurance cover for these risks. We also strongly recommend all members of your party take out appropriate holiday insurance.

ESF EVENTS SPORTS INSURANCE As an alternative to the cover offered by the holiday centres, ESF Events group travel insurance policy will cover you for both normal holiday insurance and injury to the children whilst playing football. An application form detailing the policy will be forwarded to all Group Leaders.

CANCELLATION If you cancel your booking due to illness, accident or change of circumstances, and if you have taken insurance cover, payments for accommodation arising from the cancellation may be covered.

Word for it

Thank you for helping create brilliant memories for myself and my team. We are already planning our return for next year after such a brilliant weekend.

Kirton Town Colts FC

Hessle Sporting U12 Girls had a fantastic time at ESF, what a brilliant event! Hessle Sporting Girls

This year was our 6th year away with ESF at Butlins and I’ve got to honestly say that the tournaments just can’t be beaten. The accommodation is always great, nice and clean. The presentation was better than ever this year with John Barnes presenting the trophies to the children, they thought it was BRILL! The whole weekend was unbelievable.

Beacon Colts FC

All aspects of the tournament, referees, accommodation, organisation were first class! The team really enjoyed ESF and can’t wait to come back next year!

Brixworth Juniors

I would like to thank you for the fantastic time we had at ESF at Bognor Regis. From the initial booking, right the way through to the presentation, was absolutely flawless. The entertainment was great fun from the wrestling to the Take That tribute band! On the Monday morning my team and parents thanked me for organising such a wonderful event and have made me promise that I will organise to take them again next year, which will be my pleasure as it was made so easy by you guys... A MASSIVE THANK YOU. Kennington Athletic FC

Carshalton Athletic would like to thank you all for your hard work, we had a fantastic tour and the boys really enjoyed themselves. Everything about the tour was just perfect, so a really big thank you.

Carshalton Athletic

We had a fantastic time, both at ESF and Butlins. It was the first time we’d been away on tour and we would just like to congratulate you all on such a well run event. The whole experience was great and I think the parents had a better time than the kids!!”

Redcar Athletic FC

Brilliant day at the ESF Finale in Warwick - great atmosphere, lovely pitches and another fantastic excuse for friends and family to share another weekend away and walking away as winners was the icing on our cake. Thank you ESF for ensuring everything ran seamlessly.

Felpham Colts

The girls loved Butlins, especially the great entertainment. The presentation was a really special occasion and a great end to the weekend. It was really exciting and great to have Sue Smith and Matt Le Tissier handing out the awards. We would recommend ESF to everyone and hope to come back next year! Westbury Park Foxes

From arriving on site it was clear ESF had staged these events many times. The organisation was first class, the best I have seen. To have so many games kicking off on time every day is no mean feat yet this was achieved. I was a little apprehensive about Butlins, having not been before, but I had no need to be. The site is clean and the food was lovely. The entertainment was very good and suitable for all ages. The Madness tribute act had all our party dancing away until the early hours. Fantastic! Without a doubt we will return in the future.
