Sincere congratulations to All who have supported the "Heart to Hand" Foundation in such a very practical manner. Many thanks to Breeda Cronin (standing on extreme right) for alerting us to this most inspiring work. Click on the images to enlarge. (S.R.)

Well done to Donal Burke of Kilcorney who competed in the All-Ireland Cross Country Championships in Waterford on Sunday 15th December.
 Donal is only 9 years of age and was competing U11 which is  a great achievement. 
He was 9th Cork boy home with Cork coming 3rd County in Ireland.  Competition was tough and the standard was very high with about 160 running in his race.  He did exceptionally well and deserves a break for a few weeks to give himself a chance to rest before he will train again for the track season which comes along in April/May.
His future looks very promising.
 All our athletes did very well this year and many people have said its great to see the Club back again.
 We hope to see ye all again in the New Year to keep the flag flying.
On behalf of the Committee and trainers we wish you all a very Happy Christmas and New Year.
