Here are the winners from the two day tournament:
Saturday's Winners:

Under 8s – Lepton Highlanders
Under 9s – Shelley Lightening
Sunday's Winners:

Nearly 100 junior teams competed in the tournament, which also included the first every entrant from outside of the UK! Danish Under-11s team Jægerspris IK (JIK) progressed into the Semi-Finals after making the special trip to Huddersfield to take part.
Every player who competed in the tournament walked away with a certificate signed by Head Coach David Wagner!
The six-a-side tournament also offered a wide range of activities to keep the entire family occupied throughout the day and plenty of refreshments to complete the full family experience.
Once again Birstall-based PPG Architectural Coatings UK & Ireland, manufacturer of leading trade paint brands Johnstone’s Trade and Leyland Trade, lent its support to the inaugural PPG Cup as part of its sponsorship of Huddersfield Town’s Canalside training facility on Leeds Road.
