Clonliffe Juveniles round off Spring Series in style (photos added)

The final round of another most successful Juvenile Spring Series, involving athletes from Skerries AC, Cetlic AC, Lusk AC, our hosts today Portmarnock AC, and Clonliffe Harriers, took place this morning in Portmarnock. In keeping with the theme of racing on different surfaces today`s race was held on the all weather astro turf at Naomh Mearnog GAA Club. The host club had marked off an oval which fitted the bill perfectly. Another good turn out of young Clonliffe athletes in the U/10 to U/16 age groups made the short trip and once again put in excellent performances keeping up with the high standards they set themselves since round 1 of this series at the end of March.

Pride of place today went to an athlete who has made great strides forward this year Hannah Browne who took a fine win in the girls U/16 1200m race. Young Jonathan Fitzsimons also had a great day as he completed a hat trick of Spring Series wins in the boys U/10 race over 600m. Great runs also by Ben Guiden 2nd in the boys U/14 completing the set of Series podium finishes and there were 3rd place finishes today from Isabel Brown, Aoife Hession and Daniel Coleman.
