St Marks and Rosario in Belfast are hoping to form a lasting link for the
future which will benefit both clubs, we hope to have another day like the one
in June 2003. The plan is that some of the St Marks teams will travel to Rosario
in return games and hopefully this will continue into the future, check out
rosarios website on more about the club.
The club had its presentation day on July 12th in the Coldcut club. A great day

We would like to
thank Mick Duff for running the academy during the summer, the academy was great success
in helping to teach the younger children in the area the basic's of soccer.
The players who attended are being placed into the U7 and U8 teams which will be
competing in the DDSL league this year.
Club Expansion
St Marks will be undertaking an expansion for the 2004 Season with the inclusion
of a U7, U8 and a second U15. This will bring the number of teams to 9 schoolboy
and 1 Senior team. We will be catering for 7,8,9,10,11,12,14 and a U15 Team.
We hope to cater for all age groups, but Rome wasn't built in a day!.

the club and to set a standard for coaching.
So a lot of work to be done but the club is confident of the future.
