Primary schools put on a show

The Clare Champion sponsored Cumann na mBunscoil primary schools football finals (boys and girls) were staged this Tuesday and Wednesday at Cusack Park and Clarecastle and, once again, provided great entertainment.

On Tuesday in Cusack Park, there were four finals. In the all-Ennis Division 1 boys decider, CBS accounted for Ennis National but there was joy for the National when they won the Division 1 girls title with victory over Gaelscoil Mhichil Chiosog.
Meanwhile, Barefield completed an impressive double on Wednesday winning the boys Division 2 and girls Division 1 B titles.
