van Dijk Architects were delighted to be the main sponsor of Saturday’s Irish Amputee Football Association (IAFA) National League friendly between Ireland and Scotland at Rock Celtic FC in Blackrock, Dundalk.

This international friendly was the first meeting between the two countries at this level, and the first International Amputee Football fixture to take place in Dundalk.

Garry Hoey is IAFA stalworth and Dundalk man, who began his football career at Rock Celtic has, since losing his leg, gone on to play for Ireland on 60 occasions featuring at 3 World Cups and 3 European Championships.

This match was a fantastic opportunity for the IAFA to showcase the sport of Amputee Football and advertise what opportunities are available to amputees and those with limb deficiencies. For more information, go to the Irish Amputee Football Association website
