Thankfully the sun shone and Connolly Park was packed to the rafters this morning as our Boys & Girls Juvenile Academy (U6, U8 & U10’s) along with our U12s descended on Connolly park for a fun packed 90 minutes of football challenges and novelty events. Gene O’Donnell master-minded the course which was designed to suit and challenge all ages and with the assistance of all our dedicated mentors managed to pull off a wonderful event. The morning’s action was captured by a drone and we hope to have that footage to share with everyone shortly. The morning was all part of our on-going series of events celebrating Austin Stacks Centenary Year 1917-2017. Our final challenge saw club mentors, officials, parents & players form a ‘human 100’ in the middle of Connolly Park as the drone flew over – it’s sure to be an amazing sight! The day concluded with everyone treated to some tasty bits. Well done to everyone who played their part and guaranteed a great morning that all the kids enjoyed.
here are a few of Adrienne’s snaps which best sum up the morning:
