Athletics

The Tipperary Cross Country Championships took place in Thurles Croke’s AC on Thursday 27th November. Conditions for the racing were perfect despite the early morning heavy showers that had fallen on the track. Loreto was represented by a team of ten athletes who took part in the Minor, Junior and Intermediate categories.
With conditions firm underfoot and a flat course, the race times were fast. In the Minor race,  Ruby, Erin & Robyn  ran a strong race to claim the bronze team award. At Junior level, we again had a very competitive team, with Muireann finishing  in 4th followed closely by Saoirse & Ellen to claim a silver team placing. At Intermediate level Celine, Bríd & Róise competed very well to also claim a silver team award.
Well done to the girls who will now look forward to competing in the East Munster Championships after Christmas.

We had 19 athletes taking part in a range of events. In the minor category,Gillian finished 2nd in the 800m and Jess finished 3rd in the shot. In the junior, Veerle finished 2nd in both the javelin and the long jump. Sophie also performed very well with a 3rd place finish in the long jump. The girls in the intermediate grade also had a successful day. Emma finished in 2nd in the 100m, Ava  won the 800m and Niamh  finished 3rd in the 1500m. Our relay team of Ava, Brid, Niamh and Emma also performed brilliantly to finish 2nd.  All of the girls represented the school excellently in all events, with many now going on to represent the school in the Munster Championships in CIT at the end of May.

Loreto had athletes from 1st to 5th year participating in a range of track and field events. The girls performed well in all their events against athletes from Loreto schools across Ireland. Ava Fennessey finished 2nd in both the 400m and Long Jump. Both medals were won against girls from the senior grade, which was a great achievement as she is from 2nd year. Our relay teams also performed well, finishing 6th out of the 19 schools in the junior & senior grade. Other notable performances were recorded  by Caoimhe Mulcahy, who came  4thafter a finish line photo in the 300m, and Jess Caron who finished 4th in the shot put. Veerle Van der Wal also finished 4th in the long jump. The girls attention now turns to the East Munster Championships in Templemore next week. A big thank you must go to Loreto Balbriggan who hosted a very well run event on the day.

Camogie

On Thursday the 22nd of November, two teams travelled to Fermoy to compete in the Inter-Loreto Camogie Blitz. This was the first time the girls had played together as a team and were unfortunately outmatched by some of the more experienced teams. But the girls showed great spirit throughout the day and will hopefully return with the same next year. ​
