Scór Our Scór na nÓg journey ended at the Munster Final in Ovens last Sunday. We had hopes that The Matchmaker would bring us all the way to the Waterfront Theatre in Belfast for the All Ireland, but this was not to be.
Barry, Dearbhla, Joshua, Liam Óg, Aine and Jack gave an outstanding performance and while the crowd loved the piece, their very obvious enthusiasm wasn’t enough to give us the Munster title.
We’ve had a very memorable few months with this youthful group though, and we’ll be back next year. Many thanks to all the parents who travelled to Ovens to cheer us on – we very much need and appreciate this support.
