Rathcoole Rovers F.C. Announce Their New Soccer For All Academy

By TADHG CURTIN

A message from Rathcoole Rovers F.C.’s Christopher Tarrant:

“Here at Rathcoole Rovers, we are delighted to announce our Soccer For All Academy. It will add to our already well established club and will focus on kids with additional needs. Sadly, there is limited sports in which they can actively participate, so that makes us the only soccer club with this opportunity between Killarney and Cork outside of the city. (Cork City has 5 such clubs)

Huge thanks to the wonderful sponsors: John Nolan Electrical, Tony O’Brien Craft Butchers, Dan Cullinane Blocklayers, Tarrants Skoda Banteer, Pat Kelleher Plumbing, and Moll Carthy’s Bridge Bar, Kilcorney. We also want to thank Banteer Sportsfield for their continued support. Huge thanks to Dansa Coffee, who provide hot drinks and snacks on the day, and Nicole Ryan of Sinn Fein for coming down also. We hope through this initiative we can bridge the gap in sport and make a difference in a child’s life. We also have educational workshops planned for coaches and parents to give everyone the education they need so we can make a difference. We will be running throughout the school year on Saturday mornings, 9 -11 am.”
