Sciath na Scol Camogie

Our camogie team represented our school in the new West Cork Sciath na Scol camogie competition at Enniskeane today.

After the grading competition a few weeks ago, we were placed in Division 2 which included another three schools, Laragh NS, Timoleague NS, and St Marys, Enniskeane.

Unfortunately, the weather made for very tough conditions for the teams. However, our team can be very proud of their performances against Laragh NS and St Marys, Enniskeane. They played with such enthusiasm and displayed some fantastic skills on the field in both games.

The Timoleague NS team went on to win the cup final against Laragh NS after a fine display, so very well done to them.

Well done to all Knockskeagh NS panel members on the day. We are very proud of them.

Sciath na Scoil Camogie Panel members are as follows; Siobhán McCarthy, Ella Coakley, Laoise Ryan, Peggy Collins, Leanne Walsh, Amber Horgan, Tiegan O’Driscoll, Aoibhinn Rice, Ruby McCarthy, Aideen Murphy, Rosie Scott and Muirne McMahon.
