Castleconnell
On 22 October some members of the Men’s Junior 14, Junior 16 and Junior 18 crews competed at Castleconnell in cold and windy conditions. Once more, the J14 and J16 crews rowed with success. It’s becoming a bit predicable lads.
The Junior 14 quad won their event with Luke Rigney (stroke), Kai McGlacken, Daniel Coughlan, Ronan Goulding (bow) and Gavin Farrell (cox). The Junior 16 quad won with Daragh McCarthy (stroke), Kai McGlacken, Luke Rigney, Alex Burke (bow) and Cian Hamilton (cox). The Junior 16 double won with Daragh McCarthy (stroke) and Frank O'Neill, and you guessed it, Daragh McCarthy won the Junior 16 Scull. Perhaps we should only report it when they don’t win.

A dangerous thing to do lads
Don't pay the ferryman – until he gets you

ask your parents or Goggle)
The mask is a definite improvement
OK, so you are sensitive to the sun - but this is Galway
