League 4 was held in glorious conditions in Santry on Saturday. Standout performances on the day from Chloe Corcoran, Alison Burke, Sean Donoghue and Dora Medgyesy. Overall we have had a poor turnout for the four league events, with mostly the same athletes there each week. Some may have had genuine reasons for missing out but its a pity so many did.  We are an athletic club, we expect our athletes to represent the club at whatever level. Learning to compete and getting out of your comfort zone is an important life skill which cant be underestimated. During the four weeks we have discovered previously unknown talents that we wouldnt have known about without these low key events. Well done to all the athletes who made the effort to take part, each week you could see the confidence levels growing which was great to see. We have a two week break from competition now and the next events will be the Dublin championship on the weekend of the 5th of June , Community games the following weekend. Details later.

The shop that engraved the trophies for Dublin Community Games have been taken over by another company and are now called Irish Trophies. The are located furthur up Marlborough st across from the Abbey Theater. They are over the snooker shop two floors up. The entrance is in the laneway beside the snooker shop. Alison will engrave the trophies when you tell her that its a Community Games trophy. Lunch is 2 till 2.30. Please get them in this week as time is running out.

We had 7 of our older athletes in action in Santry on Wednesday night at the graded meeting. Caoimhe Lynam had a great race in her first ever 400m running 62.56 and finishing 3rd in her race.Aoife Ni Bhroin ran 64.28 in her 400m and Aoife Corr did 64.64 for a pb in her 400. The boys were up next and we had a brilliant run from Eoin Kavanagh who won his race and knocked nearly a second off his pb running 50.32, Finn Burke Power also won his race in a pb of 52.59 and Daire Finn had his first experience of the joys of 400m running doing 54.62 for his race. Ritchie ran in the mile and finished 4th overall. Well done everyone. Next event will be on Wed 3rd June in Tallaght.
