Well done to all on Ballinas return to the National Community Games finals. Some great performances and a lot of lessons learned on the exceptional standard of athletes in these finals.

Well done to Arianna, Beau, Kyle and Farrah for their excellent performance in helping Mayo get 4th place in the team cross country.

Comiserations to Cian, Ysanne, Aoife and Isla in the mixed distance relay. A lot learned for their return next year.

A great effort by Flori in the cycling on grass to finish 4th but lost out on a medal due to the vagaries of the points system. A lot learned as she is also underage again next year.

Finally, a special mention for Arianna, who, after giving her all to win a medal in the Cross country team event, then represented Mayo in the cycling on grass. A great effort in her first cycle race, and underage again next year.


All our athletes can be proud of how well they represented their area and county today.
