The Dalkey United Champions League was a spectacular event that showcased the talent and passion of local football players. Over two days, 38 teams competed in various age groups, with the support of over 100 volunteers. The tournament attracted more than 370 players from Dalkey and surrounding areas, who enjoyed the thrill of playing with and against friends from the community. The Champions League was a great success for Dalkey United FC, as it promoted sport across the community and fostered a spirit of camaraderie and fair play among the participants.
