The team is fielding under-15 and under-16 sides in the competition.It is the fifth time he has brought teams across the Atlantic to play in Derry."The benefit is they take back a more mature approach to the game, the hope is they share the same passion as the boys here," he said.'Spectacular grass'"They were a little more aggressive than we are accustomed to in the States. It was a good lesson to take home," he said.

"The grass was spectacular, back in America we usually play on AstroTurf, it's a very different experience but I enjoyed it very much.""It is amazing and the view is spectacular.

Derry.

Misspelt Derry again

Get the old Londonderry bit in to placate the bigots who despise our city and the majority of its residents who know and refer to it as Derry.

If responding Derry / Londonderry (whichever offends) is the only response you have to a good news story about a cross community event for young ones, then you really need to have a look at yourself....

It’s just Derry

Best wishes to all players and participants this week..

Brilliant to see and also to see the young Shankill juniors taking part in this year's tournament hopefully they do well and enjoy the experience

Its Derry get it right.

BBC has got it wrong once again known to be the bigot station once again its Derry 🇲🇨🇲🇨🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
