CIS have confirmed that the kit they are providing for 16 player escorts for the CIS Cup Final is size 32/34 which is for ages approx. 10 to 12.

The 16 escorts must wear this kit which they will almost certainly keep.

In view of the honour of the occasion and the free kit, we are not asking for 16 or more free tickets for the mascots.

If you

1. fit into this age / kit size

2. want this game to be your turn as mascot

3. agree to wear the kit and if necessary acquire match tickets

contact andrewconn@hotmail.com to advise of your request.

It is very possible that we can accomodate some Junior Blues who have already had a turn as mascot subject to the above criteria. Priority will however be given to those still awaiting their turn but in any case notify Andy Conn if you are interested.

In view of the numbers we cannot arrange individual photos and we cannot guarantee who your child walks out with. No parents will be permitted on the pitch as this is an IFA fixture.

This age group will more than likely not be accomodated for the Boxing Day fixture when to give other age groups a chance they will be given first priority subject to priority going to those still awaiting their turn as mascot.

Applying does not guarantee selection as mascot. All will boil down to the number of applicants.

Please bear with us as there will be no decision till after this Saturday's Junior Blues meeting at the earliest.

Apologies for the length of this and sincere thanks to CIS for offering the Junior Blues the opportunity to provide the mascots.
