ICFDS Schools Cup The Brian Clough Schools Cup is the first ever National Futebol de Salão competition for all UK Primary Schools.  In its inaugural year (academic year 2000 / 2001) schools from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales completed firstly on a local level, then at a regional level, before the national finals took place at Aston Villa. Since 2001, the event has been run every year and has grown in size and stature.  This tournament has seen football notables such as John Barnes, Peter Taylor and Socrates attend to oversee the matches as well as presenting the winners with their prizes. The tournament is aimed at year 6 (last year in Primary School) and is open to both boys and girls. In 2002, a Girls only event, the ICFDS Girls Cup, was also introduced to encourage girls to take part as well.  Perhaps fittingly as the ICFDS originated in Leeds it was a Leeds based school, Horsforth Newlaithes, which won the inaugural schools cup.  The school had benefited from a series of coaching sessions from ICFDS coaches in the run up to the tournament and perhaps this showed as the team thoroughly deserved their triumph showing some great ability along the way.  Subsequent teams from around the UK have gone on to win the events. “The whole competition was outstanding for skill, spirit and performance. 10/10.”   Mr D. Allen, Aughton Primary School “The football was an excellent standard, very competitive and sporting. I thought that the tournament was fantastic and shall certainly enter again. 10+/10.” Mr H Pieniazek, Horsforth Newlaithes Junior School
ICFDS Girls Cup Tournaments In 2005, Garforth Town F.C, the club owned by ICFDS founder Simon Clifford, was used as the venue for the Girls Cup Final.  This proved to be such a success that the venue was used for the 2006 Schools and Girls Cups which were run simultaneously in July.
Carnegie Cup Following on from Brazilian Soccer Schools official partnership with Leeds Met University, the Carnegie Cup was born.  The Carnegie Cup is the UK's only Futebol de Salão competition for Colleges and Sixth Forms.
