CAMOGIE - A great day was had at Bray Emmets GAA Club grounds for the Allianz Camogie Participat­ion day. The blitz had been moved from the previous week because of Storm Lorenzo but the girls arrived all raring to go.

Teams from St. Patricks, Wicklow; Kilcoole Primary School; Gaelscoil na Clocha Liatha, Greystones; Greystones Educate Together and Scoil Chualann in Bray participat­ed. We were very lucky to have referees from TY in Coláiste Ráithín who did a superb job. The weather held and everyone had three good games. Big thanks to the teachers and helpers who gave their time to make the blitz a success.

Fantastic Football - A fantastic morning was had by all in Dunlavin GAA grounds at the Allianz Cumann na mBunscol fifth and sixth class boys’ football blitz. Ten teams took part in very competitiv­e games. Thanks to the teachers for their help and to all involved in organising, but most of all well done to the participan­ts.
