DCFC received no Sports NI money in last four years

DERRY City Football Club received no money from the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL) over the past four years.

Sports Minister Nelson McCausland said the club hadn't asked for any money from the Department and thus no funding was allocated.

Foyle MLA Pl Callaghan asked Mr McCauland how much funding was allocated to Derry City in each of the last four financial years and for what purpose the funding was allocated.

The Minister stated: "Sport Northern Ireland (SNI) is responsible for the development of sport in Northern Ireland including the distribution of funding.

"SNI advises that in the last four financial years it has received no applications for funding from Derry City Football Club and consequently no funding has been provided."
