On Wednesday 9th July a bit of history was made when 8 players from the Cork Womens and Schoolgirls Soccer League embarked on a trip of their lifetime. They flew out from Cork to attend the 42nd International Games that are being held this year in San Francisco. The tournament is running from the 10th to 15th July. The invitation was send to the League via the City Council which in turn had received the invitation due to the fact that Cork is twinned with San Francisco.The International Games are held every year in a different venue and are endorsed by the International Olympic Committee. 1800 athletes from 54 countries will be competing in different sporting events and developing friendships.
