Text
Last Wednesday, while working in my constituency office, I was heavily distracted, because I was closely following the Limavady High School under-16 boys who were competing against Bangor Academy. Both teams were desperate to win the Danske Bank High Schools Trophy at the Kingspan Stadium. I am not a rugby man. Football was always my thing, but, as a Limavady High School old boy, I try, where possible, to take an interest in events that happen within and outside the school. The Limavady boys did their school and the local area proud, eventually running out winners with tries from Brandon Cole, Harry Smyth and a penalty from man of the match, Arthur Hylands, along with two conversions. I convey my personal congratulations to the entire team, its coaches and the school. My understanding is that a request has been submitted for a civic reception, which would be a just and fitting recognition. The team comprised Harry Smyth; Jacob MacArthur; Curtis McIlmoyle; Zac Maguire; Brandon Cole; Isaac Cole; Arthur Hylands; Ross Carmichael; David McCurry; Reuben McCurry; Matthew McMaster; Luca Porter; M J Riley; Alan Pearson; Marc Marten; Danny Colhoun; Otis Irwin; Nathan Carlisle; Cameron Lindsay; Tom Wilson; and Oliver Millar. Limavady High School always strives to be the very best, but these boys, I can proudly say, are the very best.
