The National ‘B’ championship took place in Tullamore on Sunday last and we had two athletes taking part.  Christine Campion, who is u12, had to move up an age and won the silver medal in the u13 long jump with a magnificent jump of 3.82m.  She also came 6th in the 80m.

Nina Haller competed in the girls u14 long jump and was very unlucky, just missing out on a medal when she came 4th with a jump of 4.16m.  Nina also competed in the 100m and came 7th.  Well done to both girls.

We only had two teams representing us at this championship the boys u15 and boys u16.  Both teams showed fighting spirit on the day and were placed 7th and 5th overall.  Sadly no medals on the day but pb times for both teams.  Well done to the boys!

Sandra Lawler continued on her winning ways at the weekend when she competed for Ireland in the Celtic International games in Antrim.  Wearing the irish colours Sandra stormed home in the 80m Hurdles and the 300m Hurdles winning both titles and she also picked up gold with the 4 x 100m relay team.  Well done Sandra.

The weekend before saw Sandra take the silver medal in the girls u18 long jump in Tullamore to add to the other three medals she won at the national championships.
