Spar 5 finals set for Wednesday

THE Showgrounds will play host to the Sligo County Final of the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s Programme on the 18th April.

The SPAR FAI Primary Schools 5s Programme is the largest programme of its kind in Ireland with 31,728 boys and girls from around the country vying for qualification to the National Finals in the AVIVA Stadium on May 30th.

Over 608 Sligo students have taken part in qualification events for small, medium and large schools, however, the county final will see just 5 schools progress to the next stage, the provincial finals.

Colin Donnelly, SPAR Sales Director said, “As a community-based retailer, SPAR encourages a healthy and active lifestyle and is proud to be a supporter of primary schools’ soccer in association with the FAI.”
