The @Irishampfootbal Last Man Standing competiton kicks off this Friday. Revolut €10 to 086 1249982 and you are in. Money raised will go towards sustaining the team and youth academy in 2025. Reposts greatly appreciated to help spread the word 🙏⚽🇮🇪 @ffa_fai @FAIreland

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

2 weeks left to enter the @Irishampfootbal Last Man Standing competiton. Every entry will make a huge difference so please consider it, if you are in a position to do so. Thanks to everyone who has entered so far 🇮🇪⚽

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

Plugging this again folks. All money raised will go towards the upkeep of the Irish Amputee Football Team, our national development squad, junior academy and the running of our domestic league. Thanks to everyone who has donated so far, your support is greatly appreciated 🙏🇮🇪⚽

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

I am running a fundraiser on behalf of @Irishampfootbal. Maintaining an international side, development squad and a junior academy is expensive and funding is way lower than most of you would imagine. If you are in a position to support, it would be most appreciated. ⚽ 🇮🇪

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

Not our day on Saturday but credit to @ScotAmputeeFA on a fantastic victory. Lovely to see the friendship between our 2 organisations going from strength to strength. Can't wait for the rematch!! 🇮🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴��⚽

[FAIreland @FAIreland]

Ireland’s Amputee side faced Scotland in an international friendly on Saturday afternoon with the visitors securing a narrow 1-0 victory in Dundalk ⚽️

The clash marks the beginning of Ireland’s preparations for the 2026 Amputee World Cup in Costa Rica 🇮🇪

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

Thanks a million to @FAIreland for allowing me the opportunity to highlight the positive impact amputee football can have on players. Looking forward to 🇮🇪 v 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 at Rock Celtic FC in Dundalk tomorrow, 18th Jan. Kick off is 2pm and well worth a look if you are in the area ⚽

"You've got one arm, I've got one leg..." 💚

Meet James Conroy, the goalkeeper for Ireland's Amputee side & @bfcdublin, who is part of the squad to face Scotland tomorrow in an international friendly

A teacher at the @NLNIreland, we speak to James on how football has helped him in life, the incredible story of how he got into Amputee football and how he has since gone on to reach 49 caps for his country 🇮🇪

A remarkable, inspiring person and shows there are no barriers to what can be achieved 👏

The power of football 🫶

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

4 @bfcdublin players (including myself) have made the @Irishampfootbal squad for the European Championships next month. Another Bohs player, Christy McElliggott, manages the team. Big month of preparations ahead but delighted as always to be included. Massive honour🔴⚫🇮🇪⚽

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

A 1-0 win v Rovers and a 3-2 win over Cork sees us stay top after 4 games. Great goal here from Stefan Balog 🔴⚫

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

New players always needed. Please spread the word, male or female, young or old... all welcome to try out this amazing sport ⚽

[James Conroy @JConroy81]

The @Irishampfootbal 2024 league season kicked off on Saturday and @bfcdublin are the early leaders thanks to a 2-1 win over Cork and a 2-2 draw with Shamrock Rovers. Scottish forward Craig Lavender scored 3 of our 4 goals, @j_boyle97 with the other. Great start 🔴⚫

[Amputee Football Association Scotland @ScotAmputeeFA]

Craig Lavender found the net 3 times to help put @bfcdublin top @Irishampfootbal National league!

An opening goal against Shamrock Rovers and a double against Cork City puts Craig top of the match-day 1 scoring charts!
