Congratulations to the Dooneen women who made up most of the Limerick County Team in today's second round of the National League in Athlone. Ciara Barrett (100m hurdles, 4x100 & 400m hurdles), Maria Sheahan (200m, HJ, 4x100 & 4x400), Jane Dickenson (100m & 4x100), Shannen Ryan (3000m & 4x400), Aoife-Roisin Burke (400m, 4x100, 4x400 & LJ), Orla Drumm (800m & 1500m) and Tracey Roche (1500m walk & 4x400). Aoife O'Malley (Bilboa A.C.) & Alana Fraterolli (Limerick A.C.) were the other members of the team who did very well covering most of the throwing events. It is not certain yet if the Limerick women's team will qualify to the Final round as a limited number of points were accumulated in the first day out (Round I). Full results of qualifying teams should be available by tomorrow.
Mens results also to be added...

Some Dooneen updates from recent weeks.

- Fiona Moloney won a silver medal at the Irish Senior Finals in Santry recently where Cian Aherne in his first season back did extremely well in the 100m and the 200m, David O'Shea reached th semi finals of the 100m while Timmy Crowe ran the final of the 400m hurdles against one of the strongest fields ever to line up for this event.

Three Dooneen athletes will wear the green singlets of Ireland this weekend at the schools international in Glasgow Scotland, the latest group in a conveyor belt of talented athletes that have competed in this event in the last few years. The group includes three of Ireland's most exciting athletic prospects, all as it happens pupils of Crescent College in Dooradoyle.
Aishling Croke ranked #4 in Ireland overall in the high jump with a PB of 1.74m will be hoping for a good performance. Greg O'Shea will wear his first green singlet for Ireland ( and will probably make it a double with arugby shirt also at some point) will compete in the 100m. He will have nothing to fear after his outstanding results in the recent AAI juvenile finals in Tullamore. Finally Lily Ann O'Hora will complete the Dooneen triumverate in the 80m hurdles.
Completing a very strong Limerick representation will be Emerald AC's top sprinter Sarah Lavin, who has the great honour of being the team captain and the in form Amy O'Donoghue who recently broke 2.10 to set a new PB to push her up into the top ten in the 800m athletes in Ireland for the first time.
Speaking directly to Dooneen's Liam O'Hora, who is in Glasgow specially for this event, he reported that all athletes were in good form and he was confident there would be good performances all round and was looking forward to competition.
Best of luck to all. |
Race#2 results are shown below. However, various routes were taken, some shortcuts, so the times and places are difficult to verify unless you timed yourself, so results are a guideline. Check out Limerick City Sports Partnership on web and facebook for more photos and race report. Well done to Moira, Diarmuid, Aidan, Karina & Dave, all representing Dooneen Fit4Life. Well done also to Shane Lynch, also of Dooneen A.C., second Junior home and to Kevin O'Connor, our webmaster.
Next race will be hosted by Dooneen A.C. Fit4Life so we will be hoping for a big turnout on Thursday August 5th. All welcome!
