First 'home' basketball game at new Kilbeggan school is a success
The U16 basketball team from Mercy Secondary School, Kilbeggan reached the Leinster semi-finals last month in Dublin.
It was also the first team ever to play a home game in new school in Kilbeggan as they won their quarter-final to qualify for a meeting with a strong Dublin side in last four.
This was a great achievement and congratulations to all concerned, players and coaches.
