Very proud of Northern Ireland International Dale Taylor( age 15) - he was the youngest ever debutant for Linfield last night when he played against East Belfast in the County Antrim Shield. He played alongside past pupil Daniel Reynolds who scored.
We are delighted to announce that we have been shortlisted for
