Munster B Great day out

Best day of the season so far was the Munster B Cross Country in a super Dungarvan course today with individual wins for Hugo Blair in the U11 and Alan Slattery in the U17. Both lads were winners by a long way and showed great controlled running from start to finish. Other medal winners were Ethan Flynn and Garvin Blair in boys U9, Fergus O'Brien in Boys U11, Gwyneth Blair in girls U13, Saoirse Casey Power and Emma O'Brien in girls U15, Richard Lucas in Boys U17 and others who didn't make it into the medals but ran strong through these long distances were Nina Lawlor, Nicole McCarthy, Emma Caulfield, Emer McGlynn, Lynsey McGuire, Orla O'Connor, Anna O'Connor, Cliona Brennan, Jamie McCarthy and Luke O'Brien. Unfortunately after making the effort to make it David McGlynn had to pull out due to a soccer injury. While Louise Reidy didn't compete on the day she ended up covering the 3.5K distance she would have had to cover while supporting all our other runners from U9 through to U17 and her support was much appreciated by all.

Friday training time change!

NOTE: As agreed at the very well attended AGM of the Juvenile section of Waterford AC on Friday night our Friday night training will now start at 6:30 pm. This session is open to all members from 5 years old. As the main cross country events are coming to a close emphasis will now move to the introduction of more sprints, jumps and throws and it is intended to introduce Saturday sessions in these areas as time goes on so keep up the that training, athletes!
