International exposure for Valley
It's the time of year when international opportunity exists in the sport of
track and field and Finn Valley are involved with Ireland at different
levels.
It's especially exciting and rewarding for Pauric Mc Laughlin a young
Convoy lad who competes in Bedford for the Irish Schools. Pauric is
excited and honoured to be in there and his coaches and mentors Peader
Mc Granaghan and Patsy Mc Gonagle are proud of him as is his family who
have supported him so enthusiastically over the years.
And this weekend Bernie Alcorn and Neil Martin will travel to
Bydgosych, Poland for the world junior under 20 championships as team
leader in the case of Bernie and as Head Coach as is the case with
Neil.
Neil from Glenfin is a level 3 national coach as is Bernie from
Letterkenny. There are both involved in the sport and the Finn Valley
club since their school days and they are now in charge of the national
junior squad we wish them well.
