Comhghairdeas to St Patrick’s Burrenreagh and particularly our own club member Rian Walsh who recently won the Cumann na mBunscol final in a great game against St. Mary’s, Dechomet, on a scoreline of 3:09 to 2:07. Commiserations to the children of St. Mary’s writes Brian McAlinden.
Rian and St. Patrick’s have now won the competition two years in a row, which is a fantastic achievement. Rian score 1-02 in the final. Well done Rian from everyone in the club.
