Teresa Harrison of Co. Kildare CG with Sallins CG team, gold medal winners in the girls U10 4x100m Relay, Eimear Dagg, Abbie Byrne, Sophie Doheny and Sophie Niland
Clongowes Wood College once again provided the setting for the County Kildare Community Games Athletic Finals held on Wednesday and Thursday June 27 and 28 in glorious sunshine. The weather contributed to the carnival atmosphere as the children aged 6 to 15 battled for a place on the Kildare Team for the National Festival in August. Eighteen areas will represent Kildare in University of Limerick in Track, Relays and Field events (which were held the previous Friday in Crookstown Millview Athletic Track).
Of those representing Kildare in Limerick Kildare Town and Eadestown have 3 Track gold each while Eadestown and Sallins claimed 3 relay success each. Prosperous and Kilcullen will represent in 3 Fields events. Each success witnessed by a host of dignitaries including TD Fiona O’Loughlin, Teresa Murray, Sorcha O’Neill, and Fintan Brett was unique to each individual and they will cherish the memories.
Some like Max Tracy (Monastrevin) , Peter Hamilton (Milltown), Eabha Gilroy(Ballymore Eustace) and siblings Runo and Omason Ayavoro St Conleth’s were repeating success from 12 months ago while others would experience the Community Games magic for the first time .
