Congratulations to all our athletes who performed so well at the Connacht Team Games in Athlone IT on Saturday July 10.
For many of them, it was a first experience competing at this level, daunting as that is but reports say that they enjoyed their day and are looking forward to many more days wearing the royal blue of Carrick AC and competing at Connacht.
A special congratulations to Ornaith Guckian and Eleanor Reilly who finished third in the U10 Girls 500m race behind Moy Valley and Castlebar AC - they have now qualified for their first All-Irelands which will be held in August so we wish them the best of luck as they prepare for the big event.
A special thank you to all the parents who brought out athletes to Athlone - in these tough times of Covid, it was great that so many were willing to bring their children to compete.
A very special thanks to Siobhan Murtagh, Michelle Keenehan and Aisling O'Hart who helped look after our athletes in Athlone and represented the club as officials on the day. We'd be lost without you.
We must also thank Connacht Athletics for organising the event - not an easy thing to do with all the restrictions and limits on competitors and spectators but what a great day for the future generations of Connacht athletics stars - who knows, we might have seen a future Gerard O'Donnell, Eanna Madden, Cillian Greene or Robert McDonnell in action in Athlone today!
