Boys Basketball
On Friday 7th February the First and Second Year Boys’ Basketball teams travelled to our neighbours, Cistercian College, Roscrea to play their first pool game. This was our first game and the boys played really well and really improved as the games progressed. Unfortunately, CCR proved to be too strong, but both teams learned a lot from their games and huge improvements were made. This game will really stand to them in their upcoming games after the mid-term break.
