Juvenile County Track & Field C'Ships 2015

Our Juvenile athletes had a busy weekend when they competed in the County Track & Field Championships in An Riocht Track, Castleisland. Over the two days our juveniles competed in various events from sprints, hurdles, distance, jumps & throws. They were all very successful in their specific events.
Due to the very wet conditions on Day 2 (Sunday) some events were cancelled. These may be scheduled in at another date. This year the events / schedule went off very well with little delays. So thanks to the organisers and volunteers on the day.
A special thanks to all our head coach, Maria McCarthy and her team- Annette O'Brien, Jerome Crowley, Sean O'Shea, John Coleman, George McCarthy, Eileen & Casandra Myers & Rossa Foley for their continued support in the development of our young athletes over the last 4 months.
