European Youth Tournament in which Spurs are one of 16 teams. Here is a description taken from the official website (http://www.nextgenseries.com/):

The NextGen Series heralds a thrilling new era in competitive football, featuring the next generation of world-class players who have been trained and nurtured by some of the greatest clubs in Europe.

The Tournament gives players and their clubs the chance to take part in a challenging 6-month international competition, culminating in a final to win the coveted NextGen Series Trophy.

For young talentsThe NextGen Series represents the unique opportunity to experience all aspects of a competitive, large international tournament. The challenges they will be facing, like adapting to unfamiliar styles of play, prolonged periods of travel and “two match weeks”, will help them when making the transition to the first team.

For football fans the tournament is a great opportunity to watch young talents in the making and to experience the new football stars of the future.

The 16 international clubs are divided into four groups of four, where each club will contest a home and an away fixture against each group member. Many of these fixtures will be taking place in their first team stadiums, such as Celtic Park, Estádio José Alvalade, Anfield and Villa Park.The top two clubs in each group progress to the knockout stage, concluding with the final in January 2012.

So far we've won 2 (beating Inter 7-1 at home and PSV 2-1 away) and drawn 1 (2-2 away at Basle) of our games and top group D with 7 points.
