FOOTBALL clubs across the land have undertaken various ‘challenges’ during the Covid-19 lockdown.

One Donegal under-12 footballer has managed a superb kick-up challenge – managing over FIVE THOUSAND kick-ups.

On St Patrick’s Day, Bonagee United’s under-12s were given the Covid Kick-Up Challenge.

Players were to recorded themselves initially doing at least 20 kick-ups and increasing the amount by 10 every couple of days.
