Corn Uí Néill: Brigid’s seal the deal!

What a display. What a victory. St. Brigid’s Senior hurlers came to Croke Park and with the backing of an amazing following, they rose to the occasion against a strongly favoured GS Bhrian Bóroimhe outfit. They cast the shackles of expectation aside and wrote their names in the history books. In what was a rip-roaring contest both teams started at whirlwind pace. Scores were traded as every inch was fought for. The critical juncture of the game came late on as we laid siege to the opposition goal. In a barnstorming last 5 minutes we blitzed the opposition with two clinically finished goals. The final whistle was met with scenes of euphoria as weeks of hard graft culminated in an epic triumph, in Croke Park of all places. Silverware was coming back to the Howth Road. What a journey. What a day!

On Tuesday 6th December our school had the honour of welcoming Dublin midfielder and Raheny clubman, Brian Fenton, to our school.
Brian arrived with the Sam Maguire and stopped for photographs with our Junior and Senior football teams before being led into the hall to meet all our classes.
