Several Limerick FC players have opted to join local junior clubs with their SSE Airtricity League season now complete

A NUMBER of Limerick FC players have opted to be regraded from amateur status to junior status in order to play in the Limerick junior soccer league.

Limerick FCs competitive season ended just over a week ago following the Blues heavy defeat to champions Shelbourne in the SSE Airtricity League First Division at Tolka Park.

Up to six players who have featured in Tommy Barrett's Limerick side in recent months are set to line-out for local junior soccer clubs. The 2020 Airtricity League season is not likely to begin until February of next year.
