Munster Junior Championships and Juvenile Combined Events Championships

Monday May the 5th saw Belgooly AC heading to Waterford for the Munster junior championships and juvenile combined events championships on another wet and very windy Irish summer day. Grace McKenzie was our sole representative in the Junior Championships and in preparation for her up coming trip to the UK for their U20 Heptathlon championships Grace took on 5 of her technical events with great success. In very testing conditions she put in some great performances cheered on by her 4 young club mates who were taking part in the combined events of Danny Kelly, Ross Corkery, Eoghain Nash and Padraig Nash.
