• County Antrim PS Football Invitational

  Wed 22 Apr 2026

  CHAMPIONS

   

  Last week the boys’ football squad took part in the County Antrim PS Football Invitational. Up against the strongest teams from the Belfast, Lisburn, Carrickfergus, Ballymena, Ballyclare and A&N districts, they knew they would have to be at their best – and they were. With eight games to play APS never lost a match, scoring a tally of nineteen goals. With penalties and a sudden death shoot out along the way, they secured their spot in the final. In a tense match with plenty of drama, we went on to be crowned champions at the end of the tournament. The boys’ collected their first silverware of the season so far and we are incredibly proud of their dedication and hard work. Thank you to the travelling supporters whose attendance makes all the difference.

  
  Squad: Jaxson, Alfie, Matthew, Will, Isaac, Leo, Kayden, Kuzi, Marley, Olly, Max.

• BOYS FOOTBALL

  Tue 21 Apr 2026

  With a number of schools forfeiting their games this week due to other commitments, the APS footballers secured full points up for grabs this week. With only two games to play, the squad dominated in both with some great teamwork. With time to spare we agreed to some friendlies with St Comgall’s PS and Six Mile IPS. Antrim PS also came out on top on the derbies, showing we are the team to beat this year; we remain top of the league.

  Squad: Alfie, Matthew, Will, Isaac, Leo, Marley, Olly, Conor.

The day centre had judged our Easter colouring competition and presented some amazing Easter Eggs for the winners. We judged their colouring competition too!
