Gaelic Football Tournament

This week it was the turn of our Gaelic footballers to represent St Brigid’s in the Cumann na mBunscol Gaelic Football Tournament. Dunloy were our hosts and our thanks must go to them for organising a fantastic day of football for the 11 teams participating. Standings after the group games determined the semi-final pairings for the cup, shield and plate competitions. St Brigid’s were quick off the mark with a victory in our first group game against St Patrick’s Loughguile. We followed this with a hard-fought draw against Ballycastle IPS in a very exciting game. Despite fantastic performances in our last two group games, we lost to both St Patrick’s and St Brigid’s and St Joseph’s Dunloy, who eventually met in the Cup Final. Our results earned us a spot in the Shield Semi-Final against Millstrand IPS. Congratulations to Millstrand who took the spoils in this one and then went on to win the final. Our squad played great football all day and every one of them represented our school with pride. Well done boys and girls!
