Eric Mercer Opticians sponsors Bloomfield Junior Football Club

This month, Eric was pleased to announce a new sponsorship deal with Bloomfield Junior Football Club. 

Last week, Eric met the team and their coaches at one of their training sessions. He commented, “I’m delighted to be able to sponsor the under-14’s team and help provide them with their smart new training tops. It’s a great opportunity to encourage boys to take part in sport in the local area”.

Formed over 50 years ago, Bloomfield FC is a cross-community club based in east Belfast. As well as enjoying close links to the local community and schools, the club draws boys from all parts of the greater Belfast area and beyond.

Supported by their dedicated coaching staff, the under-14’s train twice a week on the superb all-weather pitches at Ashfield Boy’s School and play home games at Orangefield Playing Fields. They are constantly on the lookout for new talented boys to join them. If you would like to come along to any of their training sessions, please contact Gary Gorman on 07980785429. 

The team have been very successful in recent seasons winning the SBYL under 12 and under 13 leagues and in 2014 won the 37th AYR International Scotland Cup champion’s tournament.  They have recently taken the step up to compete in the Lisburn Invitational League.

Bloomfield Juniors have a strong membership base, including 9 youth age groups from under-8’s to under-17, as well as a Munchkins group aged from 6 years old.
