Our Gaelic Football Team 06/07
We train hard every Tuesday after school in the VEC grounds. We have four coaches looking after us ; Ms. Kearney, Ms. Melly, Mrs. Carney and Aisling from Templeogue/Synge Street. We lost our first match against Hollypark on a very wet day . We then had a few victories in a row against Scoil San Treasa , Saint Brigids and Sandymount. We played Bishop Galvin in Terenure College. It was a great game in very wet and windy conditions and we won 4 goals and 6 points to 1 goal and 2 points . There was a three way tie at the top of the group and unfortunately things didn't work out for us. We have a lot of pride when we put on our wine jersies and we hope to continue playing in the coming months. Hopefully we will take part in a tournament after Christmas with some local schools.
