The couple, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge,
are on a two-day trip to the British province, with the focus on
Wednesday on the benefits of sport and outdoor life on childhood
development.
They showcased their own skills during a kickabout at Belfast's
Windsor Park stadium, home of the Irish Football Association
which runs programs to encourage young girls to play the sport
and to support clubs dealing with mental health issues.
The royals, who were without their three children, were also due
to visit Fermanagh to see the Roscor Youth Village, a
residential center for children referred by social workers,
before returning to Belfast to attend a party celebrating
inspirational young people at the city's Empire Music Hall.
