Our wonderful Minor B Hockey team finished runners up on Friday in their Leinster Hockey Final. Foxrock were the stronger team for the majority of the game and were very unlucky to lose out 1-0. Captained by the brilliant Lauren Mc Fettridge the girls fought to the very end, cheered on by the brilliant supporters and teachers on the sideline. They have one more final to go this week which will round off a brilliant season for the girls and their coach John Pearson.
