Please Support the Lads From Africa

Institute will be hosting an U16 match at the Riverside this Friday at 1pm!

The game is between St Columbs College and a group of unprivileged boys from the township of George in South Africa. Their Sports Academy provides a safe haven together with educational and religious training for young boys and girls from disadvantaged backgrounds.

They are on a football tour of Northern Ireland in an attempt to raise money for their Academy and St Columbs have undertaken to raise £1000 for them.

James Green from the school has asked us to host the game so that the boys get a sense of what it is like to play in a proper stadium.
