MDL Soccer 2017

Well done to the boys and girls from 5th and 6th class who took part in the MDL soccer competition this year.

The boys played on Friday, 10th March. The A team, captained by Gareth, did extremely well winning two games by margins. The last match, against Yellow Furze, went the way of the Navan team but the boys can hold their head high. The B teams, backboned by many from 5th class, battled bravely but lost a couple of tight games by one goal margins. However, they will have learned from the experience and will look to go one better next year!

The girls played on Monday, 13th March. The A team were in a very difficult group. Though they did well to get a good draw with Ballivor, they lost both of their other games to very good teams.

The B team, again backboned by many from fifth class, made it through to the quarter finals. With Grace saving everything that came her way in goals and Caoimhe scoring many goals, they did extremely well and were unlucky to be beaten in the quarter finals.

Well done to both teams on their performances and their behaviour, both of which was excellent.
