Scoil Bhríde Football Marathon

Post date: May 18, 2013 7:54:38 PM

Edenderry GAA Club in conjunction with Scoil Bhride Parents Association ran a Gaelic Football Marathon on Friday 17 May 2013 to raise funds for Scoil Bhride.

Senior players Keith Guinness, Stephen Guing & Stuart Cullen were the organisers in chief along with Bord na nÓg Chairman Willie Forde.

Offaly Goalkeeper and County Coach Alan Mulhall dropped in and Emma Dalton and Christine McDonnell teachers in Scoil Bhride were on hand to represent Offaly Ladies. Christine had the National League Cup with her and the children were delighted to hold it aloft. Scoil Bhride are lucky as many of the staff are steeped in local GAA including current Ballyfore players Niall Spain and Bobby McDonnell...Well done to all the children and parents for supporting the event that raised a substantial amount of money for the School.

Edenderry BNS are not in a position to run this event this year but when offered suggested that they may do it next year. We look forward to helping all schools.
