3rd to 6th class boys were on the road again last Friday.  This time, they headed to the Dome to take part in a football tournament.  The teamwork, passing and encouragement on display was fantastic.  A special mention to our brilliant supporters who cheered from the sideline.  A great day out with a great crew - well done to everyone involved.
