FAI Soccer Tournament
We are very fortunate this year to bring three girls and threeboys teams to the FAI 7 a side soccer tournament held recently in Portaloise. A wonderful day was had by all, with some exceptional skill on display.
Two of our teams were lucky enough to win this stage of the tournament and progressed to the County stages. Even with the bitter cold they did not fail to play exceptionally well.
What a lovely surprise when one of our girls teams brought home gold medals here after a nail biting penalty shoot out, sending them straight to the Mid-Leinster stages. These young ladies played some incredible matches against very strong competition and returned home with silver medals for their efforts.
Each of these children at all three stages played some really wonderful soccer and we are very proud of each of them! Here are some highlights over the three days.....
