Shankill FC
Champions League 2024
The Shankill FC Champions League was set up in memory of one of Shankill’s local sporting heroes. Bertie Messitt was instrumental in encouraging kids to play sports in Shankill and to have fun while doing this. At Shankill FC we aspire to continuing Bertie’s plan and want your kids to enjoy the experience of playing sport with other kids from the localities. Please remember that all the people connected with this tournament are giving their time on a voluntary basis for our benefit. Encourage the kids to have fun and enjoy yourselves also.
