For the fourth consecutive year, Boiler Room presented the coolest – and probably the most competitive – 5-a-side football tournament in London

Some of the city's most influential collectives were kitted out by Nike for a one day showdown against the backdrop of a Boiler Room soundsystem and the capital's tastiest food vendors.

Taking to the field were teams representing Lord of the Mics, NTS, Palace, Rinse, St. Leonards, Vice, Warp and Young Turks. After a tense final with Rinse, a goal from St. Leonards in the dying seconds claimed the all important trophy, which was presented by England and Arsenal stars Danny Welbeck and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
