Bandon AC athletes were on the road once again last Sunday, July 14th, when
they headed to Castleisland, Co. Kerry for the Munster Juvenile Development Games. Twelve athletes took part in total and in relatively cool weather conditions compared to what we’ve had recently, each and every one of the kids competed very strongly which resulted in some fine performances and personal bests for Eva O Connell U9, Tara & Jane Buckley U11, Lauren McCourt, Erin De Burka, Sarah O Connor, Andrew O Leary U12 and Aoife Buckely U14. The medals went to Amy o Dononghue U11, silver in the 60m dash and long jump; Ellie O Donovan U12, silver in the 80m dash and bronze for high jump; Paul Hartnett U13, silver in the long jump and high jump and Ella Stack, who got bronze in U13 high jump. These athletes now progress to the all Irelands which take place on August 11th. We wish the very best of luck to Amy, Ellie, Paul and Ella! Again, well done to all the athletes for their hard work and dedication and thank you to coaches and parents for helping them along the way.
