PRO Notes 18.8.2019

The Junior team will be playing their next Junior Championship game on the 29th August (re arranged date) against Naomh Padraig.  Training has been stepped up and attendance is high-showing the commitment for this competition. A win keeps the team firmly in contention to progress to the semi-final stage.

 

Congratulations to our Year 13 players who received their ‘A’ Level exam grades last week.  This week it’s the turn of Year 11 to receive their GCSE results, wishing the best of luck to all our players and families on results day, a daunting and exciting time as they take their next steps on towards further education and employment.
