Our Arklow Town under-10 DDSL team were incredibly lucky to be brought up to the Aviva Stadium to support the Republic of Ireland against Iceland. Our lads were in fine voice all night and gave great support to the “Boys in Green”. Our lads loved every minute of their day out.

Our under-8 team received their training tops this week and they want to take this opportunit­y to thank everybody who supports them through buying club lotto tickets which they sell on a weekly basis.

A solid and confident performanc­e from our under-12A team was evident in their match against Greenhill Boys on Sunday.

A great game of football was played on Saturday by our LSL second team against UCD.

This team, even though the results are not going their way at the moment, never gave up for 90 minutes and the sheer guts and determinat­ion was a pleasure to watch. All players on the field representi­ng ATFC gave everything and in particular Stewie Mills whose engine never faltered.Well done to all involved.

Our under-17 DDSL team welcomed Shankill FC to our Astro facility on Sunday and a medley of great team play, a Craig Keegan hat trick and an own goal saw the team win the game with a confident 4-1 scoreline.

To enter simply fill out your name and number on a piece of paper everytime you purchase an item from the shop, to go into a “hat” of which a name will be drawn over the Easter Weekend.
