🏅 National Community Games Success for DDAC!

It was a fantastic weekend for our young athletes at the National Community Games at SETU in Carlow, with plenty of strong performances and some brilliant achievements along the way.

A huge congratulations to Emily Garvey, who came away with a fantastic silver medal in the U14 800m. A brilliant performance on the national stage!

Our U12 relay team also ran a fantastic race, with Lucy, Aine, Laura and Eabha combining brilliantly and doing the club proud.

A special congratulations to Leigh, who produced an excellent 24.66m throw in the javelin. It was Leigh's first time competing at the National Community Games, making the achievement even more special. What a way to make a national debut!

There was also brilliant running from Eabha in the 100m, while a big well done to Jack O'Connor, who took to the track in the 100m.

A massive congratulations to all our young athletes who competed over the weekend. Reaching the National Community Games is an achievement in itself, and we're incredibly proud to see our juveniles competing, enjoying the experience and representing DDAC so well.

Well done to everyone involved!
