These games formed part of the Watford and London International Festival of Football, held annually at Parmiter's School in Watford. The Reading Under-12 team for the 2000/01 season took part in the section of the tournament described as "Pro Youth Under-11". 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
Norwich City 4 3 0 1 7 5 +2 10
Reading 4 2 1 1 6 3 +3 9
Coventry City 4 1 2 1 2 1 +1 8
Millwall 4 0 3 1 0 2 -2 8
Wimbledon 4 0 2 2 1 5 -4 4

Reading then won a play-off game against the second placed team from Group A, Watford. Therefore, in some sense we came third in the competition (out of eleven teams).
