Rovers schoolboys (U9s-U14s) participated in the EFL's weekend of festivals with two age groups coming away with the top prize.

Rovers hosted the U12s tournament while other age groups headed to Burton, Grimsby, Mansfield and Rotherham. 

All age groups gave themselves a good account across all locations adapting to different styles, formats and formations pushing themselves a long way.

Head of coaching Steve Welsh said: "Playing different formats and formations of the game can only help a young footballer with their development.

"Different formats allows players to get more touches and develop their technical understanding of the game. 

"We'd like to thank the host teams for putting on good tournaments across the weekend and I'd like to congratulate a couple of the age groups who also picked up a trophy."
