Galway Outdoors ’22- Day 1

A fun day was had under glorious blue skies earlier in Dangan at the Galway Outdoors u13/19.

Our u13 boys and girls (Rebecca Mannion, Lauren Silke, Ella Acton, Niall Furey, Shane Connaughton and Brendan Day) gave it their all in their many events.

Our u14 girls were hugely successful with Isla Day winning gold in the 1500m and bronze in the 800m. Amy Joyce followed suit with a bronze in the u14 2km walk.

The hurdles brought glory for our u15 Grace Cullinane with her partners Rhona Connolly and Isobelle Conroy putting in strong performances in all their events.

Nicole Duffy represented our u17 age group exceptionally well with huge effort in the 100m as well as the long and high jump.

Eoin Furey continued his strong performances in the shotput u19 by scoring a silver and added javelin to his skillset today by claiming another silver.

A thoroughly enjoyable day was had by all and great to see their dedication to athletics paying off…..many of these athletes have been with us since u9.

Here is hoping tomorrow is as enjoyable for u9 to u12
