After eight weeks of fun and sportsmanship, this year’s Ulster Rugby Summer Camps, sponsored by Centra proved a huge success.
Almost 1,300 children took part and 23 Centra retailers visited local camps over the summer months to show their support for the initiative. At 20 Ulster Rugby Summer Camp locations provincewide, boys and girls aged 6 to 13 years learned new skills, made friends and got to meet members of the Ulster Rugby squad.
The feedback from the camps has been excellent and, with new sponsor Centra, the camps were given an extra boost. Each camp lasted five days, during which participants learned new games and skills from qualified IRFU coaches in a fun and safe environment.
Pictured with young participants at one of the last Ulster Rugby Summer Camps of 2008 at Carrick RFC are (l-r) Charlie Knox, Camp Manager; Ulster Rugby player Stephen Ferris; David Mackey from Centra Clipperstown Service Station in Carrick; and player Paul McKenzie.
