Meet Jamie Linden — a true sports enthusiast and all-around star!
Jamie proudly captained the Ireland Down Syndrome Futsal Team for 2025. In the same year, he also led the Dundalk FC Down Syndrome Futsal team to victory, lifting the League of Ireland Cairdeas Cup.
A devoted supporter of Ireland, Dundalk FC, and Liverpool, Jamie brings his team spirit off the pitch as well. At the Fairways Hotel in Dundalk, he’s a valued member of staff, always ready to serve you a delicious breakfast with a smile.
When he’s not on the futsal court, you’ll find Jamie shining on stage with Encore Productions at An Táin Arts Centre, Dundalk. Recently, he wowed audiences in Frankenstein, which went on the road to Sligo for a sold-out performance.
Footballer by day — actor by night!
This year, we’d love to celebrate by featuring our amazing members every day throughout October (and if we get lots of submissions, we’ll happily share more than one a day 💛).
Let’s fill October with positivity, awareness, and plenty of smiles 💙💛
