Newry City AFC are pleased to welcome The Eamonn Morgan Trust as our sponsor for our new Under 20 Development Squad. This team will play in the Championship Development League South and with the Eamonn Morgan Trust logo on the front of their jerseys will look forward to a successful first season. Many thanks to all involved with the Trust.

Speaking to Newry City AFC, Trust representative Declan Morgan commented “The Eamonn Morgan trust was set up in memory of Eamonn who was keen sports enthusiast and PE teacher. The trust aims to support local, young sports groups and individuals. The trust aims to encourage children and young people to engage with the community and to benefit from the advantages of sporting activity. The Eamonn Morgan trust to date have been fortunate to be able to provide support to many worthy causes and we are very happy to support Newry City with some funding for their underage team to assist with a purchase of a new strip. We wish the team all the very best for the upcoming season.”

Newry City AFC Commercial Manager Gary Wilson is calling on more supporters and local businesses to come on board and assist with selling Club Lotto tickets on a weekly basis.

He said, “We really need Newry supporters now more than ever to come forward and help in any way they can, as the club continues its goal of getting back to the top tier of Irish League football.

“The Club Lotto is a great source of revenue for us, bringing in much needed funds to the club every year, thanks to the dedicated group of supporters who run it. But we really need more ticket sellers.

“Some people out there might think they won’t be able to sell many tickets but even if you can sell  ten a week to your family and friends this will bring in an extra £500 per year for the club – which is massive. The Jackpot at the moment is over seven and a half thousand so the tickets should sell themselves, we just need more supporters and local businesses  out there to help us make them available to a wider range of local people.”

If you think you have what it takes to help the club out, contact Gary Wilson on 07745112320 or any member of the club’s committee for more information on how to become a Lotto ticket seller.

Newry City are delighted to announce that the Canal Court Hotel have agreed to extend their association with Newry City AFC as main club sponsor for the next three seasons. A willing supporter of NCAFC since the club reformed this commitment from the Canal Court is welcome news for the club as it embarks on its first season in Championship football.

Newry City AFC Manager Darren Mullen “To have the Canal Court extend their deal with us is a great boost for the club. They came on board when we were playing Mid-Ulster football and have remained a loyal sponsor on our return to the Irish League. It is a partnership that works well and I certainly hope that continues in the years to come.'”

Canal Court Hotel “The Canal Court Hotel are very proud to hold the title of Main Sponsor for Newry City AFC. It is a great relationship to have between a large local business and one of the biggest sports clubs in the local area. As a business built up of local employees we are delighted to help the club develop. It is particularly satisfying to have been associated with Newry City AFC from the beginning and watch as local management and players have brought the club back to senior football which can only be good for the development of sport in our local area. We would like to wish the club the best of luck for the season ahead.”
