Mid Ulster Council announced the kick off of the 2017 McConnell Intersport Mid Ulster Street League this week. 

(Chair of Mid Ulster District Council, Cllr. Trevor Wilson helps Mid Ulster Sports Arena staff to get the ball rolling on this year’s McConnell Intersport Mid Ulster Street League tournament).

Registrations for the annual tournament are now open. 

There are a few changes to the Street League format compared to previous years. 

In addition to the usual Street League fixtures open to teams of non-registered/recreational football players, a new 'Super League' will take place.

It will allow existing football players to enter in their own division. 

The tournament, sponsored by McConnell's Intersport, Cookstown, runs from Saturday 15th July until Wednesday 9th August 2017. 

All group games will be played within the Mid Ulster District Council area, including sites in Cookstown, Dungannon and Magherafelt. 

The semi-finals and finals will be played at Mid Ulster Sport Arena, Cookstown. 

All games will have a 7.30pm kick off Monday to Friday and a 2.30pm kick off on Saturday, with the fixture calendar being announced at Mid Ulster Sports Arena on Tuesday 20th June at 7pm. 

The number of teams is strictly limited to just 16 and places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. 

Forms can be downloaded from www.midulstercouncil.org/streetleague or picked up from any council sports facility and should be filed in and returned along with your entrance fee of £90 to Mid Ulster Sports Arena.
