Munster Juvenile “B” Track & Field Championships

Five of our young athletes travelled to Ennis, Co. Clare on Sunday for the Munster Juvenile “B” Track & Field Championships with a top performance coming from Sarah McGinley who clinched the gold medal in the Girls U/12 shot with a throw of 6.42mts.  Congratulations Sarah on your achievement.  Sarah also competed in the Long Jump where she finished 19^th with her young sister Ella competing in the U/9 Long Jump to finish 19^th with a jump of 2.32mts.  Ella also competed in the Turbo Javelin and threw 7.80mts and with the official results not confirmed it looks like she finishes in third place which would earn her a Munster bronze medal.  Confirmation on this is awaited.  Alana Spillane was unlucky in her event when just finishing outside the medals in fourth place in the U/12 600mts with a time of 2.01.47.  Bill Cussen competed in the Boys event finishing 17^th with a time of 2.11.16.  Also, in action was Saoirse Doran who took part in the U/13 600mts finishing 12^th in 2.08.27.  Well done to all five athletes on their performances.
