Soccer Blitz - Gortakeegan

Our boys played tough and worked hard and their performances were justified with 2 wins out of 3. We came up against Annalitten, Drumgossat and a challenge game against Gaelscoil Lurgain.
Caolán Mc Kenna was awarded 'Player of the Tournament'.
They thoroughly enjoyed their day out. Well done boys!
