Finn Delap and Ziggy Kozluk pop in to say hello!

The club was delighted to welcome Burton Albion defender Finn Delap and Barnsley defender Ziggy Kozluk to Leckview Park.

The two football stars, who both play regularly for their clubs in English League One, called in to Leckview to meet all the kids who take part in the club’s weekly Sunday morning Junior Rovers coaching session.

Finn, who is the younger brother of Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap, has strong connections with Letterkenny. His grandfather John is a proud Letterkenny man while his Dad Rory is a former Republic of Ireland international. Nice of him to  drop in and say hello while visiting his family relatives in the town. Our thanks to both Finn and Ziggy and best wishes for the new season!
