The Galway Minors Visit Killeeneen.

The successful Galway Minor Team who won the All Ireland Final this year visited our school with the Irish Press Cup on Friday the 2^nd of October. Evan Niland, Ian O’Brien, Cian Salmon, Patrick Foley and Shane Bannon are members of Clarinbridge club who were on the Galway panel. Evan Niland and Ian O Brien are past pupils of our school.

Galway had a tough path to the final. They played Kilkenny in the semi-final and won after a replay. They bet Tipperary in the final in Croke Park.

6^th Class gave a guard of honour with their hurls in the air while the champions walked in.  Evan spoke and gave us a few words of advice for practising our hurling and camogie at home. The boys were very kind to sign our jerseys and take a few photos with the children in our school.
