Brum Girls football team swept to victory for the second year running at the Juefa Cup five-a-side student football tournament.

It was an all-Birmingham women’s final as the Brum Girls beat rivals Mitzvah Balls, while in the men’s final, Manchester Oak Hill beat the Jewish Campus USA team.

Over 150 students gathered in Manchester to watch 20 teams compete.

Teams from as far apart as Scotland and Exeter took part in the annual tournament organised by the Union of Jewish Students and Masa, an organisation that helps students find internships in Israel.
