The competition is free to enter, but pre-entry is required. To enter, please email comps@ebu.co.uk by 10th November.

The EBU and BGB would like to extend our thanks to sponsors Andrew Robson, Liz McGowan and Paul Porteous for donating the trophies and support for these youth events. Young people are the future of our game and we are keen to support them in every way.
