Solar21 Park, Castlebar, Co Mayo will play host to the Connacht Finals of the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s Programme on the 9th of May. The SPAR FAI Primary Schools 5s Programme is the largest programme of its kind in Ireland with 36,616 boys and girls from around the country vying for qualification to the National Finals in the AVIVA Stadium on May 29th.

Connacht schools have been to the fore in the competition with just over 400 signing up to the 2019 edition of the programme. Mayo’s Belcarra NS and Galway’s Scoil Iosaif Naofa were runners up in last year’s national finals at the Aviva Stadium.

Over 6,626 students across Connacht have taken part in qualification events for small, medium and large schools, however, the provincial final will see just 6 schools progress to the next stage, the national finals in the Aviva Stadium.

Salthill Devon FC, Drom Soccer Park, Rahoon played host to the Galway Finals of the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s Programme on the 2nd of May.

The ‘A’ Cup, open to boys and/or mixed teams from small schools, had 4 passionate schools with Tuairini triumphant in what was a thrilling contest edging past Doorus.

The ‘B’ Cup, for medium sized schools, again proved to be a compelling division with 4 teams involved. The division was eventually won by Cregmore who proved a little too strong over a talented Mountbellew side.

The ‘C’ Cup, for large schools, was another hard-fought contest between 4 very talented schools. St John’s, Knocknacarra eventually came out on top of the large school’s division with a gallant St Michaels, Mervue in 2nd place.

Tuairini, Cregmore, St John’s and St Michaels will now progress to the Connacht Finals on May 9th in Castlebar, Co Mayo.

The rise in the number of girls putting boot to ball has been particularly pleasing for sponsors, SPAR, as 42% of participants are now female. Participation in the girl’s division of the SPAR FAI Primary Schools 5s Programme reached an all-time high this year with 15,344 4th, 5th and 6th class girls registered making it more competitive than ever.

The Girls ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ Cup finals were held on the 2nd of May where there was a fantastic atmosphere throughout the competition.

In the Girls ‘A’ Cup, for small schools, Newtown took the honours in a really exciting and hard-fought division with Letterfrack in 2nd place.

In the Girls ‘B’ Cup Final, for medium sized schools, Clarinbridge sealed qualification to the next stage after they overcame a tough challenge from New Inn.

Scoil Iognaid school put in a fine display against Scoil Ide school to win the Girls ‘C’ Cup division for large schools with both progressing to the Connacht Finals. Scoil Iognaid finished off the tournament with a 1 goal win and look in fine form heading into the Connacht Finals.

Colin Donnelly, SPAR Sales Director said, “The SPAR 5s is a programme we are very proud of, that, as its essence, encourages children to get involved in sport and develop a love for football and physical activity and perfectly complements our SPAR Better Choices message. SPAR has more than 400 high quality, conveniently located outlets spread across the country who are equally as enthusiastic about this programme. SPAR local retailers across Connacht have been active in supporting the programme which has reached new heights this year and we look forward to seeing Connacht  based schools competing in the National Finals!”

Galway Bay fm newsroom – Plans have been lodged for a secure dog park in Athenry.

The park would be used for exercising and socialising dogs in the local area and beyond.

The proposal is led by Athenry Dog Park and would be located at Knockaunglass.

The development would include three separate exercise and socialisation areas for different dog sizes and temperaments.

There would also be rain shelters for pet owners accompanying dogs and provision would be made for bins for dog waste.

The development would have off road parking for 20 cars including disabled parking and would be accessed from the public road.

County planners are due to make a decision in June.

Galway Bay fm newsroom – The government has officially given the go ahead for the National Broadband Plan.

A preferred bidder for the contract has been appointed to roll out high speed internet access to 1.1 million people.

Cabinet approved the plan after a much longer than expected meeting – which may suggest all was not rosy around the table.

We know the Department of Public Expenditure hasn’t always been convinced the 3 billion euro price tag for the project is good value for money.

But officials in the Department of Communications have looked at other plans and think this is the right choice – and that other options would have cost more and taken longer.

It means high speed broadband will be rolled out to every home and business in the country.

The first new homes will be connected in 2020 – but some may have to wait years to be on the grid.

In the first year of the plan 300 Broadband Connection Points will be set up around the country – meaning while people might not have broadband in their own home, they’ll have somewhere close they can go to work – reducing the need to travel to big urban areas to get connection.

But there is still disquiet over the price, as we wait on the official announcement from government.

Leo Hynes won both gold and bronze medals for Ireland last week at the Pontevedra ITU Aquathlon World Championships in Spain. For his performance in the duathlon (run, bike, run) Leo took home the bronze and after a titanic effort in the aquathlon (1000m swim, 5k run) event he took home the top prize.

Leo became Visually Impaired in late 2015 having first being diagnosed with Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) in 2009. However this has not stopped his grit and determination to train and compete at the highest level possible in spite of his visual impairment. He competes with a guide for his events, on a tandem bike for the cycling component and tethered to a guide for his running and swimming events.
