The tournament in its second year is held at Brading Town in memory of their stalwart groundsman who died almost two years ago. The four senior Island clubs all support the competition by entering a team of their veteran and former players.

The Port overcame East Cowes Vics in the final and won the competition without conceding a goal.

Surprise package for the Port was Jeff Austin who hadnt kicked a ball for over 20 years. Up against much younger players he was outstanding giving a classy performance that belied his 60 years.

 How many of the former players can you name ?
