Last Wednesday our local national school competed in Nagle Rice secondary Doneraile for the forth class girls indoor hurling tournament.

After some close games in the group stages it was Shanballymore and Ballyhea who were left to contest the final. The girls played some outstanding hurling in the final and with the game a draw with time almost up they scored a third goal to run out winners 3-2.

This was a fantastic win for the school and showed that all the hard training is beginning to pay off for the kids. The girls now go on to the counties which will be held in the Na Piarsiagh complex in March.

Well done to the team Avalu Hallinan , Kaylaigh Barry, Amy Fagan, Sarah Caldwell, Aine Burke, Ciara Palmer.
