National Novice and Juvenile Evenaged C-C, Dalgan Park, 8 December 2002, pictures

8 December 2002

Dalgan Park in Navan was the venue last weekend for National Novice and Juvenile Evenaged cross-country championships. Valley's team were confident of ending the juvenile cross-country season on a high note as they started, and their novice men's team confident of taking the All Ireland Novice title back to Finn Valley something that no Ulster club has ever achieved before. Indeed all teams performed to their expectations and Valley returned home with a total of 50 championship medals.
