We’re on the home stretch as we head into the last week in January! It’s great to see most of our teams back out running, training, playing games.

We’re extra proud of our Straffard U13 & U12 teams who are training for the Rathcoffey 5k on February 7th. They are out, in rain and cold every Monday evening and Saturday morning, bringing parents along for a run or a walk – its great to see. Well done girls and we’re looking forward to seeing you all at the 5k
