Athletics County Finals
Last Saturday the 2nd June, 30 young people and their families travelled to Ballyleague representing Boyle in the county finals of Athletics. All were participating in track events from under 8 up to under16. Doing themselves proud, seven retuned with medals.
Caoimhe Cregg won a silver medal in the U-8 80 metres. It was Caoimhe's first time in Ballyleague, it obviously didn't put her off!
Ruth Cox won a gold medal in the U-12 100 metres. Ruth will now go on to represent Roscommon in the National Finals in Athlone in August.
Sarah Halligan won a silver medal in the U-16 1500 metres and the U-13 mixed relay won bronze. The U-13 team was made up of Ruth Cox, Sinead Glennon, Kieran Calpin and David Battles.
Congratulations and well done to all the medal winners and indeed to all participants. Many thanks to Jackie Valentine for coordinating this event.
Next Friday evening, 8th June, the field events take place. Boyle have participants in the boys and girls ball throw and the boys long puck. So we wish them the very best of luck.
