The scale of the occasion will not be lost on Dunmurry Rec captain Stephen McNeice when he leads his team out against Bangor for the Steel & Sons Cup final on Christmas Eve
The big centre back is relishing the opportunity to play in his first-ever Steel & Sons final with the Northern Amateur Football League at the age of 34.
It has been quite a journey for McNeice as he made the switch to Dunmurry after a decade of playing with his mates at South Antrim.
