The Mary Peters Trust has once again provided funding in excess of £42,000 to 80 young athletes from across Northern Ireland, including two local athletes from Newry, in order to support and accelerate their sporting careers. In addition to financial support, the athletes, along with their parents, coaches and sports body representatives, were invited to attend the Trust's biannual Athlete Academy where they heard insights from industry experts on a range of topics. Pictured at the event with Eilish Rutherford, Chairman of the Mary Peters Trust, are Newry athletes Kane Tucker and Conor Quinn
