The Maccabi GB Junior Football League (MGBJFL) ended their campaign with a scintillating Finals Day at The Hive in Edgware, which saw 14 teams end the day with a trophy to cap the 2015/2016 football season.

The annual event acts as a culmination of the League – which is set out in a non-competitive format under FA regulations – and welcomes over 500 young, Jewish male and female players in mixed teams across five age groups.

There were a number of close games throughout the day, with the teams progressing to their respective competitions following the culmination of the group stages. These were the Main Cup, Mystery Cup and Mystery Plate.

Barry Abraham, Manager of North West London Jets, who won the U10 Cup final, said: "The game was worthy of the final with two of the top teams in the under-10 league making it a very exciting and hard fought game played in the right spirit. I thought the Jets just deserved the win and would like to wish Negev good luck next season."
