We congratulate both girls on their fantastic achievements and wish them both a successful season for 2014. We would also like to wish Eileen Ryan the very best of luck in her retirement as she has decided after decades of racing to hang up her spikes and take a long earned rest, though she will continue as a valued member of our coaching team to our juvenile athletes. Finally, we would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that 2014 will be another successful one for Moyne AC.
