The Football Federation Victoria-run tournament for boys and girls aged 7-14, was held at the State Football Centre in Darebin and was opened by the Mayor of the City of Darebin, Cr. Tim Laurence.

In its third year, the tournament included 30 teams from Gippsland, East Gippsland (Lakes Entrance), Ballarat, Shepparton, Mildura, Metro West, Metro North, Metro East and Bendigo, with teams competing in a round-robin format with the inclusion of a finals series.

Williams took charge of the ‘Melbourne Allstars’ team which included a number of young boys and girls who had been introduced to football for the first time and gave the players valuable tips, coaching and advice.
