Club Chairperson Mark Gillen presenting Nicholas Sheehan and Damien O’Boyle with training grants on their selection for the Irish team for the Schools International Track & Field

The Schools International took place in glorious weather conditions in Santry last Saturday where both Nicholas and Damien make their international debut.

Both men had exceptional performances with Nicholas placing 4th in the 800m in a tie of 1.58.80, just outside his PB and club record of 1.58.53 set on 7 July. Damien raced to a new PB of 4.37.18 when placing 5th in the 1500m Steeplechase in a time of 4.37.18 and shaving 0.56s off his PB.

Well done lads!
