Castlerea Community School were crowned All-Ireland B League champions at Neptune Stadium, Cork recently as they defeated Kildare Town CS.
The team coached by Thomas Callaghan’s led from the start but were made to work hard all the way to the end.
This was a win built on outstanding defensive tactics and teamwork as Castlerea CS forced the opposition to take outside shots while Castlereas’ rebounding skills was excellent against a very physical side.
The whole team gave a great performance from three pointers and free throws to excellent passing with each member contributing to the great win of 54 to 45.
Congratulations to the players, coaches, teachers, families and wider community who supported the team every step of the way. The whole community of Castleera is justly proud of this team.
