On Monday evening last a huge crowd gathered in Anner Park, Cloneen for the Parish community games field evening. Blessed with sunshine a total of 114 children took part in the athletics competitions to see who would go forward to represent Drangan and Cloneen in the county community games athletics finals in Templemore next month. Cheered on by parents and spectators every child from the tiny tots to the under 14’s gave it their best as they raced for the finishing line hoping to be in the top three so as to go forward to the county finals. Girls and boys races from 60 metres to 800 metres were organised for each age group under 8’s, 10’s, 12’s, and 14’s. The puck fada hurling competition was also held for girl’s under 14 and boys under 12. The evening which was enjoyed by everyone ended with the medal presentations for the winners and drinks and snacks for everyone who took part. Great credit is due to Ann Clancy , Valarie Boland and Mary Mahoney who put so much work into organising the evening and keeping community games alive in our Parish. We wish the very best of luck to all the competitors who now go forward to represent our parish in Templemore next month. As well as athletics Drangan and Cloneen will also have competitors in swimming and gymnastics as well as having a tag rugby team at under 12 and under 14 level.
