Schools Competition:
We’re pleased to announce the return of the local SuperValu National School Competition in the weeks ahead. Last year, it enjoyed tremendous success, drawing strong participation from local schools and the broader community.
This year, each school will have the opportunity to field both boys’ and girls’ teams, vying for Cups, Shields, and Plates. However, our primary focus remains on fostering fun, participation, creating lasting memories, and nurturing friendships.
We extend our immense gratitude to our main sponsors, Eva from Hughes SuperValu Claregalway, and Emma from Flynns SuperValu Lackagh. Their support makes this event possible.
We’d also like to express our appreciation to Peadar of Treat Claregalway, who once again stands behind the event by generously offering complimentary tea and coffee during the final evening.
Thanks to all of our local schools for participating and best of luck to you all!
Round 1 took place last week.
Round 2 throws in this coming Wednesday and Thursday (20/21st) from 10am -1pm
The Finals take place the evening of the 27th with a number of cups and shields to play for.
