Dylan to represent Offaly in half-time game at All Ireland football final

One of the biggest days in the Irish sporting calendar is coming up on Sunday, when Galway meet Armagh in the All Ireland football final.

And Offaly will have a representative on the Croke Park pitch on the day, in the form of Dromakeenan National School pupil Dylan England.

Dylan will represent Offaly Cumann na mBunscol when he takes part in the INTO Allianz Cumann na mBunscol half-time game on Sunday.

Dylan qualified to play on the big occasion in Croke Park by winning the Offaly Cumann na mBunscol boys football skills competition held in Clara earlier in the year.

He is now preparing for what's sure to be a very memorable experience as he takes to the pitch at GAA headquarters in front of a capacity crowd of 82,000 people.
