Your game is an invitational five a side football tournament for young men and women aged 16-25, offering opportunities through football to those who would not normally get the chance to take part in something of this kind.
Led by the BBC, but working with a host of other football bodies including the Premier League, Your Game involved over 1,200 young people taking part in a series of regional tournaments in major cities in England.

As well as the opportunity to play at a Premier League ground, Your Game offered participants the chance to train as a coach or referee, DJ workshops and a chance to try commentating with the BBC. This was alongside many other opportunities to get into new jobs through local employment networks.
The teams that have entered your game over the past two years have come from a wide range of backgrounds - homeless hostels, mental health projects, ethnic minority action groups and disabled teams. All were brought together to play each other in a major football tournament aimed specifically at them.
