What started as a community tournament between different streets in Shantallow and Galliagh has grown into a prestigious city wide tournament played at Leafair. “I was delighted to have the opportunity to recognise this real institution in Derry soccer,” said Mayor McHugh. “The Eamon Bronco Bradley Summer Cup has been a great platform for local footballers to play competitively over the years and attracts huge crowds to the Leafair pitches. “Congratulations to everyone who has been involved over the last 40 years and good luck to the committee for the future.” The 40th edition of the Bronco Bradley took place in Derry last month. The competition is held in memory of the late Eamon ‘Bronco’ Bradley who was shot dead by members of the Royal Anglian Regiment on August 25, 1982. He was 23.
