COMMUNITY GAMES

Many thanks to all who contribute­d to our recent church gate collection. Your generosity is greatly appreciate­d. Music; Gold was the colour for our u12 musicians in the recent County finals. Despite missing Katie, who was recovering from an operation, they played exceptiona­lly well, earning their first place with a confident performanc­e. They will now represent club and county in the National Finals in May. Congratula­tions to Odhran & Layla Kate Buckley, Finán Fogarty, Katie Joyce, Jack O’Connor, & Gracie O’Sullivan. Our u16 group also took to the stage with an enchanting mix of jigs & reels but were unfortunat­e not to medal. Well done to Aoibheann Buckley, Aisling Cooke, Síne Fogarty, Aisling Hennessy, Ella Pickett, & Samantha O’Sullivan. Síne also competed in the u16 Solo and despite being one of the youngest participan­ts in that competitio­n preformed brilliantl­y. Thanks to all of our young musicians, their mentors, and parents for all their hard work and dedication.
