The Oxford Saints Youth AFC have been invited to take part in the Channel 5/NFL Europe Flag tournament to be held at the National Hockey Stadium in Milton Keynes later this month.

Just eight teams from the United Kingdom have been invited to the prestigious event on October 28.

Those invited include Leicester Eagles, who reached the semi-finals of the World Championships, and Birmingham Bulls, who won the national championship at the end of July.

The competition is for children between the ages of 12 and 15, and at stake will be the Channel 5 Trophy.

The games will be screened at 11 am on November 4 on Channel 5's weekly American Football round-up.

Entrance to the stadium is free and kick-off is at 11am.
