Well done to our boys and girls teams that competed in the FAI Primary Schools 5 aside competition in McSharry Park Sligo. Both teams competed very well in all games. They also put in a great performance in the Amigos gaelic football skills competition held in Enniscrone.

The Sligo Primary Schools' Cross Country competition was held in Rathcormac last weekend. Our athletes trained very hard over the last few weeks and put in great individual and team performances. There is athletics and cross country training for children age 8 and older every Monday evening from 6.15 - 7pm in Enniscrone with West Sligo Athletics Club. Give it a try!

Well done to our boys team on winning the Sligo Cuman Na mBunsol gaelic football shield final.
