Dear Teacher,

 

I’m delighted to announce that the 2016 application process is now open for the SPAR FAI Primary Schools 5s programme. The Dublin qualifiers will take place from March 7 to 11 in 4 different venues across the County (dependent on your Schools catchment area)

 

VENUES

Dublin City Council – (Irishtown Stadium, Jonathan Tormey)

South Dublin County Council – (South Dublin Football League Grounds, Stephen Rice)

Fingal County Council – (Corduff Community Centre, Denis Hyland & Martin Doyle)

Dun Laoghaire Rathdown – (Loughlinstown Leisure Centre, Rory O’Hare)

 

The programme involved over 19,000 students last year with 1,069 schools participating. The competition has been running since the mid 1990s and the programme promises to be bigger and better than ever this year.

 

Please see a short clip of the National Finals Day in the Aviva Stadium, Dublin last May: https://youtu.be/FVDhXIqbh84. FAI Schools are delighted to announce that the National Finals will be hosted in the spectacular surrounds of the Aviva Stadium again this year. It could be your School in the National Finals on May 11, so sign up now for your chance to go all the way and create a day to remember for your School and its students.

 

This magnificent competition is for kids in 4th, 5th and 6th class and it all begins at your local county level. The events are a fantastic opportunity for girls and boys to participate in a fun filled one day blitz.  There are six sections to cater for all school sizes so whether your school falls into the small, medium or large category there is a competition to cater for you. Please note we have added a new Girls ‘C’ Cup section this year which ensures equal opportunities for girls participation with the same three sections available as the Boys/Mixed competitions.

 

Please familiarise yourself with the competition structure and rules outlined in the attached PDF.
