Wexford Athletics Awards Night
A huge thank you to Wexford Athletics County Board for hosting a most enjoyable Annual Awards night in Wexford Golf Club.
Well done to all the prizewinners who were awarded their medals and trophies.
Our club picked up its fair share of individual and team medals that were won across road races, cross country and Track & Field that were collected on the night.
123.ie Leinster Indoor Juvenile
Fiachra Mehigan and Darragh Mehigan were our representatives at the Leinster Indoors in Athlone across two days of competition. The brothers were busy competing in multiple different events over the weekend.
Fiachra was competing in U16 and ran really strong to take 6th in the 1500m. He qualified for the 800m final giving a good account of himself finishing 12th and went on to take 7th in the long jump.
Darragh was competing at U14 starting with a good run over 800m. In the shot putt and long jump events he set new PB's for himself showing great potential.
Well done to both these young men, lots more to come from both.
A special word of thanks to Padraig, if you look up the word volunteer in the dictionary you will find a photo of Padraig Kelly .
