I am currently a senior in high school (secondary school) in Northern Virginia, USA. I will be moving to Dublin, Ireland at the end of June to eventually attend university at either UCD or DCU. I am an Irish citizen thanks to my dad and hope to spend many years living there. Very Happy

I am a goalkeeper for my high school and club team. I hope to play in Ireland as much as possible. My question is.... does UCD and/or DCU offer scholarships for soccer players specifically goalkeepers and whats the best why to tryout for the team? Cool

Good luck with it! UCD would definitely be the better option if you're looking for football

Thanks Conaldinho!

Is the current goalkeeper for UCD any good? Does anyone have a video of him in action?

Quigley seemed like quite a good keeper but as Paul said hes since moved to Derry.

Matt Gregg is their current keeper, I havent seen enough of him to really rate him. Here's his wikipedia profile..

If you type him into youtube you'll probably find a few things as well
