The 2021/22 NIFL Championship fixtures are out!

We’ll open the campaign at Dixon Park where we host Ballinamallard United before making the trips to Institute and Annagh United in the following week.

Our festive schedule sees us making the away trip to Newry City on 27th December before hosting Annagh United at Dixon Park on New Year’s Day.

The run-in before the split takes us away to Dundela on 19th March with our final game before the split being at Dixon Park facing Newry City.

All fixtures are subject to change and more details will be provided in due course.

Richard Purcell (centre) and Matty Evans (left) sign for the Comrades as we strengthen our goalkeeping team.

Richard joins the Goalkeeping team having previously come through the ranks of his home town club, Coleraine FC.

Michael Dougherty, who worked with Richard over 4 years within the SchoolBoy & Club NI International set up, acted swiftly following the release of Ben McCauley.

“Richard is a GK who I’ve known for a long time,” our Head of Goalkeeping added. “He has an exceptional development background & I am delighted to be able to bring him to Ballyclare.”

Matty joins the club from crusaders & has been recruited to further enhance the goalkeeping department

“I have worked very closely with Matty over the past year within the NIFL elite scholarship programme at Windsor Park. A young , exciting & ambitious talent who will further strengthen our goalkeeping options at Ballyclare”

Richard will wear the number 19 shirt, while Matty will wear number 13.

Exciting young talent, Josh Mcgreevy, joins the Comrades following spells with PSNI and Carrick Rangers.

The 20 year-old centre forward will add a new dimension to our, already exciting, attacking lineup.

“Josh has enormous potential,” Paul Harbinson said. “He’s an exciting young prospect that will develop at the club and we’re thrilled to have him on board.”

Josh will wear the number 15 shirt.

We are delighted to announce the signing of experienced Irish League defender, Chris Ramsey.

Chris brings a wealth of experience to the club after playing at the highest level in the country over the past decade with Cliftonville, Larne, Portadown and most recently, Carrick Rangers.

“I believe he’s a player that can really make a difference for us,” Paul Harbinson said. “He knows what it takes to succeed at the highest level in this country and I have been really impressed with all our talks and the ambition he has shown to take us to the next level.”

Chris will wear the number 6 shirt this season.
