The Mayor of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Councillor Richard Holmes said:

“We’re delighted to see the return of these fantastic opportunities for young people, which will encourage them to get out and get active this summer.

“This year there is a great variety of activities on offer and with a focus on inclusivity, health and wellbeing, our young people can enjoy expert sports coaching during the school holidays.
