Spike Ball Blitz

On Tuesday 26th January sixth class attended a “Spike Ball Blitz” in Magh Éne with Cliffoney N.S

hosted by some T.Y students from Magh Éne.

The T.Y students coached us for six weeks on the different aspects of the game. The different skills we learned: Catch and throw, spike, forearm pass,

volley and serve. The Transition Year students worked hard preparing us for the blitz and

ensured the smooth running on the actual day.

Our teams were:The Lucky Leprechauns: - Caoláin Mc Monagle, Conor Jack Mc Manus, Shane Mc Monagle, Jack

Spollen.Spikers: - Killian Fox, James Gilmartin, Michael Mc Gloin, Casey O’Donnell, Michaela O’Reilly, Natasha

Ward.The Hot Chilli Spikers: -

Although Cliffoney N.S won on the day we had a great time and we were really well looked after in

Magh Éne. Thank you also to our coaches Rebekah Corrigan, Louise Rouse and Helen Clany.
