What a Night for Colmcille at Scór! Last Saturday night was a fantastic night for our club at Scór, with incredible performances across the board! We are absolutely delighted to have taken home victories in Solo Singing, Set Dancing, and Sean Nós Dancing—a testament to the talent, dedication, and hard work of everyone involved. We also came so close to winning Club of the Year, just missing out, but what an achievement it was to be in the running! A huge well done to all our acts who represented Colmcille with pride. The standard was very high, and every single performance was something to be proud of. Now, the journey continues as we head for the Leinster Semi-Final on March 23rd! Let’s keep supporting, and keep the momentum going.
Best of luck to Longford, in particular, Ruairi, Jack and Cathal as they shift their focus to the next game against Carlow this weekend on Saturday at 5:30 pm in Netwatch Cullen Park.
