Firstly - congratulations to the many DSDAC athletes who competed in the 7 Days of Competition for the Dublin Championships - for some it may have been your first competition whereas others are well seasoned competitors!
We were delighted to see so many athletes participate over the 7 days of competition - there were fantastic performances from all athletes in the heats and finals on the track, in the field events and in the relays – there were medals, PBs and qualifiers for Nationals over the course of the Championships.
A sincere thank you must go to the many parents who volunteered to officiate during the Championships – without your generosity the Juvenile Competitions would not be able to go ahead and both DSD and the Dublin Juvenile Competition Committee thank you for your efforts. And a heartfelt thank you must also to all of the coaches that attended and prepared their athletes so well for their events – both beforehand and on the day.
