Over 70% of the players weren't previously J-Soc members so it's great UJS is offering Jewish students an alternative way to get involved.

Building on the success of last year's event, it has now become the biggest student national 5-a-side tournament in the country.

This year saw the introduction of a women's league which was won by the UJS office team -- 'The Pretty Committee' -- star striker Emma Rickman scoring six goals and walking away with the golden boot.

The men's tournament saw a real increase in quality with finalists Joelton Athletic narrowly beating Spurs Boys 2-1 in the final. The winners will be off to Spain to enjoy watching Real Madrid play a game at the Bernabeu.

Event organiser Josh Colman said, "It was fantastic to see such a huge turnout even on the day Liverpool were playing Man United. Over 70% of the players weren't previously J-Soc members so it's great UJS is offering Jewish students an alternative way to get involved."
