Congratulations to the Year 12 Football team who won the Under 16 Belfast Shield on Tuesday 8th April in a thrilling final at The Blanchflower Stadium. Ballyclare Secondary school defeated RBAI 4-2 on penalties after the game ended 0-0 after extra-time following a tough match with nothing between the sides even though Ballyclare enjoyed plenty of possession and exerted significant pressure. This is the first time in Ballyclare Secondary’s history that we have won a Belfast District football competition, previously being defeated in one final and two semi-finals. Congratulations to this group of pupils who have represented Ballyclare Secondary School extremely well over the last five years and what a fantastic way to finish their journey as a team together. The team and coaches would also like to thank their supporters (pupils, staff, families and friends) who contributed to such a memorable and history making occasion. We celebrate together on a momentous day for BSS!
