FANTASTIC FINN HARPS FUTSAL HEROES TRIUMPHANT ONCE MORE

The Finn Harps Down Syndrome Futsal squad once again carried all before them as they retained the trophy at the latest LOI All-Ireland tournament.

Once again the Harps team won every game they took part in, including a semi final win over Derry and the final against Dundalk. Coached by Tony McNamee and Danny Ferry, Harps won all their group games- 6-1 v Wexford, 5-0 v Bohemians, 3-0 Shelbourne and 3-2 Bray Wanderers to win the group.

In the semi-finals, Harps took on Derry City, Shaun McCosker and Hughie Sweeney scored two each in a 4-2 win. Sweeney scored 2 more and McCosker added another as Harps defeated Dundalk 3-2 in the final.

Well done to the whole squad for representing the club so brilliantly and bringing home the Cairdeas Cup.

The Finn Harps squad was: David Crawford, Daniel O’Reilly, Meg Carr, Hughie Sweeney, Shaun McCosker, Kealan Doherty, Anna Hennessy, Leanne Kelly.
