Nine first year students attended the Bank of Ireland Athletics Talent ID Programme in the National Indoor Arena, Abbotstown on Tuesday 27th Feb.
They competed against 150 other students from across the country, in world class facilities, testing their speed over 60m, long jump and high jump skills. They also got to listen to international athlete Brian Gregan talk about his athletics career to date and how he overcame the barriers that were put in his way, bringing home the message that there is something out there for everyone.
We certainly have a lot of talent to showcase and look forward to the outdoor track season in April. Thanks to Athletics Ireland and Bank of Ireland for organising the event.
