NEWTOWN JUNIORS

-

Saturday, July 1 is the date for our Presentati­on Day. We will also be running our Mini World Cup this year (for the first time in a couple of years) and we will need a little bit of help. So if you are interested in football and can spare an hour or two every week leading up to finals day on July 1 to do maybe a bit of refereeing etc. it would be greatly appreciate­d. It is open to girls and boys from five years upwards.

For members of Newtown Juniors F.C. there will be no cost while it is €10 per head for non-members. All players (members/non-members) who intend playing in the Mini World cup must register on an official form.

Dates for registrati­on are Saturday, June 10 from 10am to 12pm in the Community Centre and during the Newtown Street Fest beside the Parkview Hotel on Sunday, June 11.

Closing date for registrati­on is Tuesday, June 13, at 8pm to allow for team selections and fixtures.

No registrati­on will be accepted after this date/time. If we don’t have sufficient numbers for a respective age group, then we wont be in a position to run a competitio­n for that said age group but will do our utmost to facilitate all players.

The first games in the Mini World Cup will take place on Thursday, June 15, from 6pm.

All Mini World Cup finals will take place during our Presentati­on Day on Saturday, July 1.

Please note that all children will play on finals day, you never know the ever popular ‘Tiny Tots’ game may make a comeback.

All our players are currently out and about with sponsor cards (where players can purchase club gear depending on how much money they collect).

This is one of our main fundraiser­s so it would be great if we got loads of support, which to be fair we usually do.

Regards the Presentati­on Day, all our managers (U-10-U-15’s) must get their thinking caps on and mull over who they will be selecting as their Player of the Year and Most Improved Player of the Year award nominees.

As part of our Presentati­on Day we will have loads of fun games, which will include bubble football for all our teams from the season just finished.

The WDSL Presentati­on Day will take place on Sunday, June 25, in the Grand Hotel in Wicklow town for all players from under-8s up to under-16s.
