U-10S READY FOR RANGERS

Carniny’s U10 team have been invited by Rangers Academy to visit the famous Glasgow club to play a match against their Scottish counterparts.

This has now become an annual event, as the squad are following on from last year’s team and the boys are excited by the proposition of a match at the Murray Park training ground.

The team will get a full tour of the complex and after a lunch they get to test their skills against some of Scotland’s top youth players.

The majority of the squad has grown up together from their time in the Carniny FDC and now have two years’ experience playing in the North West Youth Coleraine League.
