OLD BAWN BOYS ACHIEVE A FIRST FOR THE CLUB

Posted: 18/03/2008

 

wersadfdasfFor the first time in Old Bawn Gymnastics history, 5 of our male gymnasts represented the club at the 2008 Appenzeller Shield Competition.  Old Bawn have never before entered a boys competition outside the club walls and it is safe to say they did not disappoint.  All of the boys performed a floor and vault routine and they did not come away empty handed.  At level 2 under 8 Matthew Donoghue achieved 3rd place.  At Level 2 under 10 Cathal Larkin took the Gold with Adam Lynch taking silver.  Not far behind was Ciaran McDonald who achieved 4th position.  At Level 2 under 12 Sean Keane took the Gold medal.  This is a fantastic achievement for the boys and we hope to build on their success in the future.  On top of this, all 5 boys have been selected to the regional squad.  This is a promising sign of things to come for our boys club!!
