TESTIMONIALS

A few of the comments we received after the 2007 Festival:

 I am writing to thank you both for providing a wonderful experience to our boys.
It was the first Festival of its kind which the Team has participated in and
everybody concerned (Players, Dads and Mums, Brothers and Sisters, Relatives and
Friends) had a really enjoyable day.

South Africa & the Bidvest Wits U15 team to thank your family & the Golden West
staff for a wonderful festival a few weeks ago. We are still training & playing league
matches & there is not one session that goes by without a mention or a
good laugh about our trip to London. 
- Ian Wedderburn BIDVEST WITS UNDER 15 COACH

 I was really impressed with the running of the tournament and the high
quality of sportsmanship and football on display.
- Wright Choice in the under 9’s UK

Just a short to say a HUGE thanks to you for a great AISF this year. All
the South African players & accompanying families had a great time!
- Mark Axon, South Africa

I would like to thank You and your team for the fantastic time we had
at the Tournament last week. All the arrangements for the tournament
and our sight seeing trips had been perfect and all of us did very much 
enjoy the week. The atmosphere on the Tournament was fantastic and
it was very nice to meet so many nice people from all other the world
during the tournament.

Thanks for the invitation and hosting us. My son enjoyed his time in London
plus the experience of playing international teams. His team got the 3rd place
medal of U13. Thanks for making half of his dream come true. He stepped
into London's Arsenal Stadium. He is a big fan of Arsenal Team. In 2004 on
transit to USA, I bought him an Arsenal T-shirt. Later on he told me he will
one day wear the real Arsenal T-shirt.
- The Flying Eagles from Texas

Many thanks for the time we spent at the Arsenal tournament.
The boys & parents had a great time and it was even more enjoyable this
year as we managed to win the plate final. I look forward
to seeing you next year.
- Horace Nelson (Cobham U15's)

I am watching the exciting game between Arsenal and Chelsea. Your team is leading 1-nil. I am living in Florida now, in Naples. Retired from school teaching. I do not know whether you recall the years I brought Diamond Express to your wonderful tournaments, but I do.

Watching the game reminded me of the times we spent with you and just wanted to say hello.
