The new synthetic football pitch at St Columb’s Park hosted the McDonalds Regional Football Festival last Thursday.
120 boys & girls from Ebrington Primary School & Oakgrove Integrated Primary Schoolenjoyed glorious weather where fun games were played throughout the morning.
Kevin Doherty the IFA Grassroots Development Officer for Derry City Council said, ‘I am delighted that the young people enjoyed the event. Without the help and support of the teachers from the schools the festival would not have been possible. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them and the coaches for all their time and effort on the day’.
Ryan McKeegan from McDonalds restaurants provided the children with much needed healthy drinks and fruit bags on the day.
