The Western Spikeball Finals took place earlier in St.Brigid’s Vocational School Loughrea, Co.Galway. This year our girls team flew the flag for our school, representing us proudly against strong opposition.

The girls did so well in a difficult pool, particularly considering the age profile of our team with so many of our team members in fifth class. They have made great progress over the course of this season . As mentioned, many on this team will be available to us again next year and we really hope this great experience will stand to them. Comhghairdeachas mór to the our sixth class pupils who set a great example, always encouraging their younger teammates while playing very well.

A special word of thanks to the transition year students who have helped us over the past number of months. We really are so thankful for their interest and enthusiasm.

Finally a special mention to Geraldine Finn whose expertise, encouragement and efforts are always much appreciated. Geraldine always give so much to spikeball in our school and indeed our community. We thank her sincerely for this. Maith thú Geraldine!
