I'd say either Mitchells or Wolfe Tones would be more than glad to get someone involved in the club. Prob more scope in Mitchells as they have decent under age setup and ladies teams. If you're looking contact details drop me a PM and I can send ya details.

Some good news on the local teaching front,

New teaching jobs being created by NI Executive


Plans to provide employment for newly qualified teachers in Northern Ireland are to be announced later.

A number will be offered two-year contracts to provide one-on-one tuition for children and young people who are struggling with basic skills such as literacy.

The Ulster Teachers' Union said it was a "welcome initiative" that would help to raise standards.

A scheme to create health intervention posts will also be announced.

BBC NI political editor Mark Devenport said the announcements were designed to create employment in an innovative way.

"One of the initiatives will be to provide employment to newly qualified young teachers who haven't been able to find employment in schools - there are quite a few of them because the system was turning out too many of them," he said.

"The idea is obviously that you try to give some of the skills to those who have fallen through the cracks of the system and at the same time give some experience to the young teachers who are finding it hard to get on the first rung of the employment ladder. The idea is that you solve two problems with the one measure."



Avril Hall Callaghan, from the Ulster Teachers' Union, welcomed the move, saying: "We're just delighted that there can be a scheme that will give employment to young teachers because at present we have an aging teaching workforce.

"Only 12% of teachers in schools at the moment are under the age of 30 and yet we have something like 4,000 young teachers who have qualified in recent years with no jobs."

She said the idea of the scheme was to "free up" places for young teachers by allowing people who are older to exit the teaching profession.

Ms Hall Callaghan said the scheme was about "raising standards, reinvigorating the workforce and targeting areas of social disadvantage".

Another initiative due to be announced is a scheme involving health intervention staff working in deprived areas with around 1,200 families who need help across Northern Ireland.

First Minister Peter Robinson and Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness will give more details about the jobs at Stormont.
