28 July - 2 August 2014 Denmark





The annual tournament is classed as an U17s competition, but Kenny Swain takes charge of the squad as he uses the trip to look at players who he never got chance to select in the previous season’s U16s games as well as options for next season’s younger group.

Swain only coaches the U17s for this tournament each season, before John Peacock takes the players as Head Coach for The FA International Tournament in late August and the European Championship qualifiers thereafter.
