The 8th annual Donegal primary Schools Cross Country championships at Finn Valley earlier today proved most successful once again with 588 competing in the various age groups. The added bonus was the excellent weather conditions and the event was enjoyed by a large attendance of parents. While the emphasis was clearly on participating it really was never so important that schools engage the issue of a routine of exercise and an educational process on healthy eating. The battle for top schools in both section was:
  • Large schools (200 pupils +) - Woodlands
  • Medium Schools(100-200 pupils) - Annagry
  • Small Schools (Up to 100 Pupils) - Draw between Kilcar and Devlin Reagh.
The local organising who once again did an excellent job were; Patsy Mc Gonagle,Anne Murphy, Grace Boyle, Christine Feely, Brendan Patton, Nell Bradley, Brendan mc Nulty, Noel Laverty, Peader McGranaghan,Paul Gallagher,Rosaleen Mc Gonagle, Niall Mc Gonagle, Grainne Mc Gowan and Eugene Drumm. It is anticipated that athletic leader coaching courses will be rolled out shortly aimad at the primary school sector.
