“What an exceptional year and congratulations to Lisburn on their success as Premier League Champions, CIYMS on creating history by winning a first ever Irish Senior Cup and a well done is also in order for Derriaghy on winning Section One to progress to the Premier league next season. Laurelvale were crowned Section Two champions and in the cups it was a great success for CSNI II in the Junior cup and Cliftonville Academy in the Intermediate Cup.
Finally a shout out to Instonians III for a Minor Lindsay Cup win and Derriaghy III winning the Minor Qualifying Cup.
We are already very much looking forward to next season and seeing if Lisburn can repeat this success going forward but as we know everyone wants to beat the champions so they will once again need to bring their ‘A’ game to retain the trophy. . a word of thanks also to everyone at the NCU and president Richard Johnson and we look forward to working with them in the future.”
