"The council remains committed in providing a varied ‘Summer in the City’ programme to include weeklong sports courses in a range of sporting areas.
"It is vital to encourage children and young people to remain physically and socially active throughout the summer months whilst promoting a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved for organising such successful camps at both Kirkwoods Playing Fields, Lisburn and Lough Moss Leisure Centre, Carryduff.
