Athletics – Cumann na mBunscol Áth Cliath – UCD

Congratulations to all of the athletes that represented us so well at the Cumann na mBunscol Áth Cliath athletics competition today at UCD. This is the yearly event that usually happens in Santry but it was moved this year because of upgrade works. We were very well represented by a group of 24 children from 5th and 6th classes which was made up of runners and subs. It was a very hot day and the children could have easily been overcome by the heat but they stayed calm and saved all of their energy for their races. We won medals in the individual sprints (80m) and the long distance race (600m). Our Under 12 Boys Team also won medals in the 4 x 100m Relay and 3 of our relay teams made the finals of their categories. We are very proud of all of the children who attended today and we think they had a very enjoyable day out! Thanks also to all of the staff who supported us along the way and who chaperoned today.
