Date: Tuesday, 13 February 2007
Section: eircom League
Eircom League of Ireland clubs around the country will be opening their doors to fans and families for an action packed day of fun and activities for all. The free family fun open days will be held at a series of eircom League of Ireland clubs giving fans a unique opportunity to meet and compete against some of your favourite players in various exciting activities. Show off your fabulous football skills in a penalty shoot competition against your heroes and let your fancy footwork lead you to piles of merchandise and spot prizes throughout the day. Look out for many surprises and enjoy the refreshments. The players will meet all of their fans for autographs and photos.
This unique opportunity is run in conjunction with the FAI National Club Promotions department which is headed up by ex-Cork City, Limerick and Shamrock Rovers goalkeeper Noel Mooney.
This is the beginning of a range of initiatives to highlight the positive family atmosphere at our eircom League of Ireland clubs.
Speaking at the announcement, Noel Mooney said, “Having worked closely with the clubs on this wonderful project, I am thrilled with the professional approach our clubs are showing towards promoting themselves in the community.”
He added, “The Club Promotions Officer programme is all about making the football club the all-embracing focal point of the community and it signals a turning tide in Irish professional soccer.”
“When you add the Club Promotions Officer programme to a unique marketing campaign, the appointment of our new eircom league of Ireland Director, Fran Gavin, the appointment of an internal compliance officer to audit the clubs accounts, this truly is a brave new world we are entering with Irish soccer,” he added.
To enjoy this un-missable day out for all the family at your eircom league of Ireland club see www.fai.ie for the latest information on all the eircom League of Ireland open days.
