ON Friday, April 20, Bolton Lads Club U13 entertained Portadown Youth from Northern Ireland.,

I would like to thank and pay tribute to Derek and his team, who worked hard behind the scenes, to put on and entertain 32 people from Northern Ireland.

Also Carrs Pasties, Warburtons, the landlord and staff of the Mosley Arms, Breighmet, and DJ, who gave their time and donated the buffet to give everybody a memorable day.

It proved that sport can unite people from wherever and whoever.

Once again, thank you, and here's to next year.
