All the winners from across the EFL's CEFA competitions were celebrated at Wembley Stadium in an awards event during the Sky Bet Play-Off Final weekend.
The CEFA Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements of young footballers aged 16–19 who participate in CEFA Competition. These awards recognise clubs and teams that have excelled on the pitch throughout the season.
This season was our fourth awards ceremony, and it provided a unique opportunity to honour and celebrate the league and cup winners from our 25 regional divisions across the country and two cup competitions.
This year’s awards were hosted by Sky Sports presenter Adam Smith, who brought energy and professionalism across all three ceremony days.
Dave Robertson and professional footballer Ollie Palmer joined us for insightful Q&A sessions, sharing their experiences from within the game, including career highs and lows, and offering practical advice to players aspiring to progress in football.
To top off the ceremony, the captains and coaches of each winning team were invited pitch side at half-time during the Play-Off Finals for official photos, creating lasting memories at the home of football.
Congratulations to the following teams who picked up awards across the weekend.
