Peil Faoí Dhíon 2025

During the month of January our 3rd class girls and boys, assisted by a few volunteers from 2nd class, played some fantastic football in Ballinacarriga Hall during an indoor games series aimed at 3rd class level. 
The indoor games act as a great opportunity for our pupils to gain exposure to gaelic football in a non-competitve environment. 
The Knockskeagh teams can be very proud of their efforts and most of all their fun approach to each game. 
Well done to all participants for their performances! You should all be very proud 🏅👏
