Derry City Year 8 Football Blitz

This was the fourth Year 8 Blitz of the year held in Derry City on Friday 29th May at Templemore Sports Complex, only three schools were able to attend as unfortunately the date clashed with end of year exams in three schools which ruled out seven teams. St. Peter's, Creggan attended for the first time as a result of an eight week coaching programme setup in partnership with DCC, Sean Dolan's GAC and the school. 47 players took part and the weather was in our favour as it turned out to be a great day. The competition was very evenly matched which was very encouraging for the boys attending for the first time. Teachers were delighted by the efforts of their teams. Sean Dolan's coaches,Joe McKane and Brian O'Donnell assisted Paul Simpson on the day with refereeing and co-ordination of the games.
