Some of Schrader Electronics finest athletes and sports men and women took to the football pitch last Saturday in aid of the company’s two charities for 2015, Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke and Cancer Research.
Mens teams from Antrim and Carrick came together to compete for an over 30s and under 30s trophy and the ladies demonstrated some striking skills in their half time seven-a-side games.
