MILK CUP: Milk Cup programmes hit the streets

The 114-page programme has now arrived in shops across the North East and the eight-year-old from Coleraine now can't wait for the competition to begin.

Tournament volunteer Melody Hogg, who distributes them, says: "We've been inundated with requests about when the programmes would be on sale.

"It seems everybody wants one and we have been busy getting them into local newsagents and tourist information centres."
