Coaches learn from former NI star
Former Northern Ireland striker and Premiership manager Iain Dowie was in Ballymena on Saturday for a special coaching clinic.
The event had been organised by The Sports Hut and was hosted by Michelin Athletic Club.
The day started off with a get-together with all 18 coaches before the first session where local youth team Carniny Youth under 16s were under the guidance of Iain, who put them through a very intensive sessione. Iain was very impressed with the boys.

Again Iain was impressed with the quality that the young lads showed especially as the weather wasn’t kind but it certainly didn’t dampen the spirits of the event.
