Basketball final

Tuesday 16th March

U-16 Cadette basketball team competed against Cashel Community School in All-Ireland Basketball Finals in the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght. To reach this stage, the team of eleven - eight Transition year pupils and three Third year pupils won their matches in the Dublin finals and more recently they won in Longford at the Regional finals.

The team: Michelle Cleary (MVP), Karen Halpin (Capt), Yvonne Murphy, Jenny Farrelly, Sandra Thomas, Rachel Rispin, Pamela Roche, Amanda Farrelly, Edel McGlanaghy, Annissa Beldi, Tracey Hughes

The whole school went to support the team which has been playing basketball for only three years. Four double-decker buses lined up in busy Manor Street and quickly filled up with teachers and pupils carrying mascots, banners, streamers, and who had painted their hair and faces with the school colours of green and white.

Congratulations to the team and to Deirdre McDunphy their PE teacher and Coach.
