Drayton Grange FC host their annual six-a-side Festival of Football over this weekend.
Attendance is expected to exceed previous records with more than 150 teams descending on Daventry Sports Park from London, Leicestershire, Birmingham and Coventry as well as local clubs taking part in the two-day event.
Organiser Richard Aubrey took a break from pitch marking to explain the secrets behind
the festival's continued success.
He said: "We try to encourage as many teams as possible to come to Daventry by keeping the cost of entrance as low as possible and when they get here they enjoy a well-organised, fun event.
"New teams enter each year and many clubs chase us to confirm the date for the next year's festival so they don't miss out, which is testament to the hard work by the teams of volunteers
that make the festival
possible."
The festival is open to teams of all age groups from U7s through to U15s, including two girls' sections at U13 and U15.
