A very enjoyable athletics day for our young athletes in Tullamore today for the Leinster Multievents. Noah Gilmore competed in Junior Penthatlon and won gold with 2,564 points. Six of our under 13s, two girls and four boys, competed in the Tri event – Long Jump, Shot and 200m. Alicja Swanski placed fifth on 1056 points which was helped by a long jump clearance of 4.04m.
