Round 1 of the Flahavans' Primary Southern Area league began on Friday. It was a beautiful Autumn Morning in Lurgan Park and as usual the competition was well represented with approximately 400 children from 15 schools competing.
King's Park girls' team have continued from where they left off last year by smashing their race. Ellie Cousins won the race by a fair margin. Leah Balfour came 3rd, Nicole Penny 4th and Victoria Alexander 5th. And astounding total of 13 points puts them well out in front at this stage of the competition.
Girls also had success in the fun run which was won by our own Alex Kerr. Casey Cousins in her first competitive schools race came 3rd
The boys while not as strong as previous seasons, gave a good account of themselves came second in their section, and are sitting in third place overall at this stage.
