Michael Langan proving a 'big hit' at Rosses CS with Manchester United Foundation

Rosses Community School have expressed their delight with Donegal midfielder Michael Langan’s work at the school.

Creeslough native and St Michael’s clubman Langan has a room at the Dungloe school, which is part of the partnership with the Manchester United Foundation, who launched its first overseas partnership with Ulster University in 2018.

It offers students the opportunity to develop business and entrepreneurial skills and has since developed a network of partner schools and community football programmes, impacting the lives of over 1,500 young people across Derry and Donegal.

“We are delighted to welcome Michael Langan to the team as Manchester United Foundation lead at our school,” Rosses Community School posted. “Michael's room has been a big hit since opening at the beginning of the school year, with students finding it a safe space to chill out, play games and connect with others.

“The Manchester United Foundation works with our school to inspire and empower young people through football and education. From coaching sessions and mentoring, to leadership programmes and community projects, the Foundation helps students build confidence, develop life skills, and unlock their full potential – both on and off the pitch.

“Our next cohort of students to benefit from our affiliation with the foundation are our second year boys who will travel to Old Trafford next week to take part in the Street Reds tournament.”
