Who is this year’s Special Guest?
Officially opening the tournament this year is Northern Ireland and Leeds United legend Stuart Dallas who played in the tournament several times in his youth.
SuperCupNI chair Victor Leonard said the organisers of the tournament were delighted when Stuart agreed to open the 2024 tournament. “Stuart’s journey as a footballer is one which we believe will resonate with so many of the young people participating in the tournament this summer.”
“He shone in the domestic game locally with Coagh United and Crusaders, before making the well-deserved move to England and you could see from the reaction of Stuart’s announcement that he was having to retire due to injury, just how well respected he is in the game.
“Stuart has been very fulsome of his praise for the tournament, and I know he has very fond memories of his time playing with County Tyrone.”
When do the matches begin?
The action gets underway the next day on Monday 22nd July, across three male age groups and two girls’ age groups, with the tournament concluding with finals day on Friday 26th July.
