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. |
