Well done to our Athletics team from 3rd and 4th class who were victorious in the County Sports Hall Athletics finals in Letterkenny on Friday, 8th March 2013. The team first showed promise at the regional finals, with some fine individual and team efforts. They continued in this vein at the County Finals and qualified for the All Ireland Semi-Finals. This competition was held in Sligo IT on Thursday, 14th March 2013.
In the All Ireland Qualifying heat in Sligo, the school faced the corresponding champions from Galway, Sligo and Roscommon. There were 12 events on the day. When scores were totted up, Kilmacrennan had won seven first places and seven second places. This resulted in a first place overall with 134 points scored from a possible total of 144 points. Team members and parents were jubilant.

All eyes then focused on the National Finals which were held in Athlone IT on Wednesday, 2Oth March. There were some outstanding individual and team performances and well done to all. When the scores were tallied, Kilmacrennan N.S. girls finished in bronze position, a most creditable performance.

The hard work of the athletes and the School Athletic Club is paying dividend.
