A NEW football tournament attracted hundreds of youngsters and raised £450 for a youth education project.
More than 40 teams took part in the first five and seven-a-side competition at Bishop Auckland College on Saturday.
The event was organised by Stephen Yorke, the college's technician, and proved so popular that it could become an annual event.
All the money raised is going to the Network Challenge, a programme to help young people gain confidence, have fun and achieve valuable qualifications.
Finals results: Under-16 - Bishop Auckland College A 2 Sporting Shildon 0. Under-14 - St Mary's B 1 Waldridge Park 0. Under-nine - Spraire Lads 1 St Mary's Blues 0.
League result: Under-11 - St Mary's Whites 13 points, Fulwell Fitness 12 points
