Sarah O’Gara, Scoil Bhríde, Coolmine, was in incredible form, winning all her 4 fights by Ippon, and winning the Female Player of the Day title for the 3rd year in a row, while Hanlon Crowley, Killygarry, proved far too strong for all opponents at U-432 kg, U-10 years, winning 5 matches by Ippon & the Male Player of the Day title
Under-13 years, Adam Kelly, Sacred Heart, Huntstown, won all his 3 matches to win the U-45 kg category, while Laurynas Jousapaicils, St. Phelim’s, Ballinagh, Cavan won the heavier division in the same age group.
