Midland Inter-County Juvenile T&F Match 2018 (18th May)
Club’s youngest athletes compete in Tullamore
We received very short notice of the Midland Inter-County Juvenile T&F Match on Friday evening 18th May in Tullamore, so numbers taking part from the Club were down on previous years. Competition was for boys and girls aged 8 to 13 years, and the Mullingar athletes represented Westmeath against athletes from Counties Offaly, Laois and Longford. The weather was absolutely glorious and conditions were perfect for competition, which added hugely to the enjoyment of this popular event by the young athletes and their parents and coaches. Despite the few in number from the Club, they made their presence felt with plenty of them visiting the podium to receive medals, including Charlotte Ripley (u/9 turbo javelin silver), Megan Charles (60m u/9 bronze), Joshua Scahill (60m u/9 silver), Cathal Kilmurray (u/9 turbo javelin silver), Jack Geoghegan (300m u/9 silver), Greg McDonnell (60m and 300m u/9 bronze), Oliver Lynch (500m u/10 gold), Matthew Webb (60m u/10 silver), Lydia McDonnell (u/11 long jump silver), Katie Kilmurray (600m u/11 silver), Jayne Charles (u/11 turbo javelin bronze), Cian Corcoran (600m u/11 silver), Eoin Donohue (u/11 long jump bronze), Morgan Corcoran (600m and shot u/12 gold), Orla Manning (600m u/12 silver), Jamie Wallace (60m and 600m u/12 gold), Caoimhe Donohue (u/13 shot gold), Adele Geoghegan (600m u/13 silver), David Burke (600m u/13 silver) and Alex Lynch (600m u/12 bronze).
