FLAG FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS !!!
๐ Flag Football Champions! ๐
A huge congratulations to the St. Marnock’s Flag Football Team who put on an incredible performance at the Leinster Flag Football Tournament yesterday on Alfie Byrne Road!
Ten of our 6th Class pupils represented the school with great determination, teamwork, and spirit. The team played three tough group games before battling through a quarter-final, semi-final, and a nail-biting final.
The final couldn’t have been more dramatic – it finished one touchdown apiece, sending the game to a thrilling playoff shootout. Both schools had five chances to score from the 5-yard line… and on the very last play, St. Marnock’s broke through to score the winning point and claim the Leinster title! ๐
