TRACK AND FIELD FINALS

Last weekend the track and field finals of the Kerry Community Games were held at An Riocht, Castleisla­nd. Great credit is due to the organising committee on their redevelope­d track and a full programme of events was run off in a very organised and efficient manner.

The following won gold in their events: Shauna McCarthy & Cian Spillane - U14 800m , Michael Lynch U10 hurdles, John Sexton U10 200m. Huge congrats to these four who have now qualified to represent Kerry in their events in the national finals in August.

The following also enjoyed great success in their events: Donnacha Lynch won bronze in the U8 80m and there was 4thand a Certificat­e for Eabha McCarthy in u12 600m.

Rhian McCarthy U10 200m, Cian O’Brien, U12 100m, Robyn O’Connor U8 60m got into their respective finals and were unlucky to lose out.

It was a very satisfacto­ry and hugely enjoyable weekend for us and a big thank you to all the athletes who represente­d our area and their families that travelled in support.

A sincere thanks to all who helped out in any way over the past number of weeks with the preparatio­n of our athletes for last weekend’s activities. Your help is greatly appreciate­d. Check out our Milltown-Listry-Community-Games facebook page.

A pink Ladies Regatta rain coat was left at our station give us a shout if it is yours. See some of you competing at the Primary School Sports at the same venue on this Wednesday (28th) at 6pm. Paul Sexton Secretary Milltown Listry CG
