DKIT and Dundalk FC launch student scholarship initiative

Delighted to meet Martin O Neill, Denis Cummins(DKIT president) Ciaran Bond (Dundalk FC club chairman) and Dundalk FC players at FAI headquarters today at the launch of the DKIT/Dundalk FC student scholarship initiative.

The scheme is aimed at those CAO candidates who wish to pursue a third level education whilst simultaneously pursuing a professional soccer playing career at the highest level in Ireland.
DkIT will offer a total of four soccer scholarships each year to both Leaving Certificate students and mature students.
A successful candidate’s performance will be assessed annually, under both academic and soccer performance criteria, across the duration of their academic programme. They will also assist as student ambassadors on college Open Days and in school recruitment initiatives as well as playing on the college teams.
