Week 1 of Three Ways CA Soccer Camp in the Ropewalk Synthetic Pitch was a great success.
Thankfully the rain held off to allow all young people to get the best from this programme.
Enjoyable evening by the young people and great to see their skills and happy faces.
Looking forward to next week.
On Tuesday 28th July, junior members of Three Ways Youth Project went for an evening of go-karting at FormulaKarting Newry as part of the NR Outdoor Education Programme, followed by the senior youth group who attended on Thursday 30th July.
Both groups had enjoyable evenings and plenty of competitiveness amongst the majority of them.
Our thanks to the Department for Communities, NR Education Programme and Sean McKevitt for providing the initiative and the funding.
