Trophy section added

Saturday, 22nd January 2000

We have added a Trophies section to the site. The first trophy we have included is the NCU Senior Challenge Cup. All the winning teams from 1887, when the Cup was first played for, up until last season, 1999, have been listed. Our thanks must go to Fred Allen for providing this valuable information, some of which it is proposed to include in our forth coming fixtures book for the 2000 season. Fred has also provided, in meticulous detail, the names of each player involved in the winning teams. We will be publishing these at a later date along with other NCU competition information. WATCH THIS SPACE !!

Still some of the Limited Edition prints left

There are still some of the LIMITED EDITION prints of 'Ormeau' by R. Taylor Carson (ARUA). This original oil of 'Ormeau' was painted in September 1960 by the acclaimed Ulster artist R. Taylor Carson. It commemorates the centenary match, NICC v's MCC and is identical to another painting presented to the MCC during their visit.

The artist has kindly agreed to allow prints to be made limited to 250 copies, and he will sign and number each print, which will be approximately 26.5 " x 23.75 " (675mm x 603mm). The print is priced at £ 60 per copy. If required, framing can be arranged with a company which has advised the club on this project. (Frame shown below is for display purposes only on this web site.)

 {short description of image}

As the club prepares to leave 'Ormeau', this is an opportunity for members to obtain a tangible reminder of the ground, the clubhouse and it's proud history on this site !

To secure your copy you can contact the Secretary / Manager at Ormeau (check Contact section for details if unsure). Please make cheques payable to NIC&FC

Extra Ordinary General Meetings

At two Extra Ordinary General meetings held simultaneously in both North and Collegians, the members of both clubs voted to proceed with the merger to form the new club, Belfast Harlequins. As of 12.00 midnight, 18th November 1999, Belfast Harlequins came into to existance. Here's to a long and successful future for the new club !

The first Annual General Meeting of the new club is scheduled to take place before 31st March 2000. There will no doubt be a lot of items on the agenda for discussion. Lets all take the opportunity to build a club where everyone can relate to it's identity.
