These games formed part of the Watford and London International Festival of Football, held annually at Parmiter's School in Watford. The Reading Under-11 team for the 2000/01 season took part in the section of the tournament described as "Pro Youth Under-10". The reason for the apparent discrepancy in ages is that the cut-off date for Academy football is 31st August, whilst this tournament took place in July.

Group B table:

  P W D L F A GD Pts
Coventry City 5 3 1 1 7 4 +3 10
Watford 5 2 3 0 7 2 +5 9
Norwich City 5 2 2 1 7 6 +1 8
Reading 5 2 2 1 3 2 +1 8
Millwall 5 1 1 3 2 5 -3 4
Luton Town 5 0 1 4 3 10 -7 1

Reading then won a play-off game against the fourth placed team from Group A, Fulham. Therefore, in some sense we came equal seventh in the competition (out of twelve teams).
