Football is at the heart of it, and there's a lot more besides. Here are a few of the things our players and families do together. We update this page once a season, and the latest is always on the club's Facebook page.
The latest on Facebook
The 2015s and 2016s took the club on tour: a flight, a tournament weekend, medals for every player at the Respect ceremony, and a paddle in the sea.
Every hour of the four days was planned, from the 5:30am meet at the airport to the flight home. Tap a day to see it full size.
Blackpool 2026, about a minute, no sound
Walking out with the teams: 22 seconds, no sound
Our players have walked out onto the pitch with the teams as flag bearers at Irish League matches, in front of the crowd.
We encourage every player in the academy to run Jordanstown junior parkrun on a Sunday morning, a free 2k for children aged 4 to 14. Lots of our players meet there, and a match usually breaks out afterwards.
Off they go: nine seconds, no sound
A climb up the hill above the city, and a rainbow over the lough at the top.
A table of parents, a raffle on the night, and a few rounds nobody can agree on.
An afternoon kicking a football round a foot golf course in the sun. Some of it even landed near the flag.
Foot golf day, twenty seconds, no sound
The club's awards afternoon, and each team's own awards.
