Joe McAree Celebration Ball
A “Joe McAree Celebration Ball” has been organised for the 28th April 2012 to celebrate Joe’s 40 years of service (so far) to Dungannon Swifts Football Club and also his services to Dungannon United Youth, without dad football in this area wouldn’t be at the level it is and the youth of our community wouldnt have the opportunities offered to them. He has provided opportunities to youth coaches and done his very best to ensure supporters and players were looked after to the highest standards over his ongoing time involved.
This is a great opportunity for the community to show their support to dad and also to enjoy a terrific night. So far we have had a good response but mainly from people from further afield so I’m asking the local supporters, coaches, players, parents and all those who have been helped in some way by dad to pay the respect that the man deserves.
The dinner will be held at The Glenavon House Hotel, Cookstown, commencing at 7.30pm, The special guest for the evening is Leeds legend John Giles who will be joined by Jackie Fullerton and other football personalities from dads past, music will be provided by the fantastic Untouchables.
Tickets are priced at £50 per head, dress code is black tie for the boys and long dress for the girls, for further information contact media@dungannonswiftsfc.co.uk, Keith Boyd or a member of the committee, its not too much to ask for your support for a man who has given so much!
Cheers, Rod.

On Easter Tuesday Dungannon Swifts are calling on the local community to get behind the Stangmore Blues in their challenge to remain in top-flight football, as they take on Ballymena United at Stangmore Park, kick off 3pm.
The Swifts have seen an increase of families coming along to their home games in recent weeks. Dungannon Swifts Public Relations Officer Jason Scott comments that “in the last few home games we have seen a significant rise of families coming along, children are bringing their parents to Stangmore Park, and it creates a great atmosphere with Swifts flags and energy at our games.”
Dungannon Swifts is a family friendly club, which welcomes everyone and as part of our ongoing commitment to reach out and build good relationships throughout our local community, on Easter Tuesday they are offering a special bank holiday deal with a reduced entrance price of just £5 to all home and away supporters.
With the whole family off for their Easter holidays, what better time to come along to Stangmore Park together and see some top-flight football for a holiday special price?”
