The Durrow NS girls soccer team has been very successful this year.
They reached the Mid-Leinster finals in Laois on the 2nd of May, after winning the county final in Leah Victoria Park.
They fought off teams such as Ballinamere, Killeigh, Tubber, Ferbane, St. Cronan's and Mucklagh. Pupils were delighted to reach the Mid-Leinster finals and we finished runners up.
It’s a great achievement for our school as they are the first girls team in the history of Durrow NS to make it this far. Thanks to all supporters who were with them all the way.
The girls soccer team consists of Jessica.B, Rachel.L, Claire.O’B, Aoibheann.M, Tilly.C, Abbie.B, Caoimhe.D and Ciara.M.
A huge thanks to the coach, Ms Gaughan who was with the players all the way, especially in the times they needed her most. Compiled by Tilly and Rachel, 6th Class
