Basketball at Bunscoil Bhríde
We are very proud of our Basketball team here at Bunscoil Bhríde who made history for our school on Tuesday 29th January by winning the Cumann na mBunscol Basketball final in Scoil na Naomh Uilig, Newbridge. The Bunscoil Bhríde team played a very exciting game againt Scoil Uí Riada, Kilcock. It was a very close game and we were very lucky to take the lead in extra time winning 5 – 3. Each team member played fantastically and were spurred on by the great support of their 6th class peers. This is the first time Bunscoil Bhríde has ever won a final. Congratulations to the all the girls who have trained this year. Thank you in particular to the coaches Ms. Ryan and Ms. O’ Halloran who have given so freely of their time to train the girls after school.
Basketball season in Bunscoil Bhride has been very exciting this year. Our basketball team had a glorious win, 30-6 against Scoil na Naomh Uilig. We are so proud of their achievemnt. Unfortunately we were not successful against Scoil Uí Riada, Kilcock and lost 16-7, but it was a great game and the girls displayed great skill and determination. We are looking forward to our last game against Scoil an Libh Iosa later this year. A special thank you to our coaches, Ms Ryan, Ms de Faoite and Ms O’ Halloran for giving so freely of their time.
