Trust Soccer - Called Off !!!

[garykelly]

It is with sincere regret and disappointment that the trust must inform you that the football tournament schedule to be held this Saturday December 10th 2005 has now been called off.

This decision owes to an issue surrounding insurance of the event to be held on the Sligo Rovers All-Weather pitch. It came to light only a few days ago that the insurance policy held by Sligo Rovers would not cover this trust organised event.

Since learning of this, the trust has been doing all it could to find a way to ensure that the event would go ahead. There has been lengthy consolation with Sligo Rovers to try to find a solution to accommodate the event, but we could not find a solution as the deadline to make a decision came and went.

It is most regrettable that this event has gone by the wayside, as lot of work was put into this by the trust. Generous sponsors came forward to sponsor the event and to these we apologise for this lost opportunity. We must also apologise to those who put in the effort to register teams and a special thanks to people that were travelling to Sligo for the weekend especially for this event. Teams who have not already been notified will be as soon as possible.

The trust aims to hold this competition at some point in the future and we are fully determined to make it a big success.
