Dalbeattie Star FC girls’ goal of a dream trip to Barcelona next year is a little closer thanks to an assist from Dalbeattie and District Lions Club.
More than 20 youngsters will be heading to Spain in June to compete in the Barcelona Girls Cup in Salou if they can raise £12,500.
The Lions’ generous £600 donation will cover the team’s registration fee and deposit.

Fundraising is ongoing towards the £12,500 needed to enable the team to take part in the prestigious competition.
