Great day out at Munster Masters in Cork




With a medal haul of 37 medals at the Munster Masters T&F in Cork on Sunday Aug 1st Waterford AC had a great day out with great team and individual experiences! The ladies 4 x 100m relay got things off to a flyer in romping home with gold followed by the mens relay winning bronze. Other gold, silver and bronze performances continued through the day and all agreed it was an excellent day out for the club.

The ladies relay team was Jacinta Power, Gabrielle Blair, Elaine Barry and Suzanne Dullaghan. The men relay was Finley Weir, Paul Walsh, Frank Quinlan and Dave Drohan.

Other members who made the trip and enjoyed, competed, medalled, supported and/or officiated were Rosie Van Ver Valk, Maura Lawlor, Cathy Cronin, Deirdre Chapman, Derek Grant, Ger Nolan, Paul Connolly, Martin Flynn and Tanya McDonnell.

Full results on http://www.munsterathletics.com/ and thanks to the club coaches who helped out with the introductory days of T&F earlier in the summer in preparation for these championships: these were Albert Tebay, Derek Grant, Brian Swaby, Mal McGlynn, Jacinta Power, Harry Culbert and Tom O'Brien.

Many will now go on to compete at the National finals in Tullamore in 2 weeks time on Aug 15th and we wish these athletes the very best in their endeavours.
