U16 Boys GAA U19 Girls Basketball Win The Under 16 boys footballer's run in the Dublin A championship came to an end v Benildus away (Nov 5th). In an attritional game, hampered hugely by a gael force wind blowing across the Benildus astro, the lads came up just short on a scoreline of 0-7 to 1-3. Although it wasn’t to be on the day, the talent within this group is undeniable and we are positive that their day will come as they enter the Senior ranks from next year. U16 Girls GAA Win Our Under 16 girls are looking forward to a Leinster Quarter Final in January after finishing top of their group which contained Athy, Newbridge and old rivals Naas. The girls put in a brilliant display against a fancied Naas team in their final game to ensure qualification. Best of luck to the girls in the new year as they strive to bring the Leinster title home for the first time. Well done to our U19 Girls Basketball team who beat Santa Sabina on Friday 22nd Nov. in the first round of SSA Premier Basketball League. Final score 26-18. #BringBackTheSash Sports Contributers: @BBall.A.Dunne @U16.D.Murray
