Sports teams are congratulated for sporting successes
The opening shot came from Alderman Stephen Moutray who praised Waringstown Cricket Club for “yet again” winning the NCU (Northern Cricket Union) Challenge Cup by beating Instonians in the final. “It hasn’t been a great season for them in the league, but again they’ve shown their mettle by winning the top knock-out competition,” he added.
“Lurgan and Waringstown are dominant in cricket. It’s sad to see Portadown dropping out of their league recently, but they’re the better area in the football sense.”
