F&W select hosts Sligo representative side

INITIALLY representatives from all 12 clubs in Division One were named in the Fermanagh and Western League select which will play a Sligo Leitrim District Soccer League side at the Valley Stadium on Saturday.

However in recent days there has been a few late withdrawals due to injury and unavailability.

This year the team will be managed by NFC Kesh manager Ryan Campbell with Richard Clarke, Killen Rangers, acting as assistant player-manager.

This is the fourth consecutive year that the sides have played each other in the end of season representative fixture and Campbell is sending his team out to defend an impressive winning record.

“It would nice to keep the record going,” said Castlederg native.

“This year we made sure all the Division One clubs were represented and we believe we have another good squad with some top performers. It’s always a fairly relaxed occasion and I don’t see why we can’t go out and give a good account of ourselves again.”

The game at the Fivemiletown United venue kicks off at 2pm.
