Jenny Robinson Cup

In memory of the late Jenny Robinson, 16 predominantly boy's teams from Primary Schools in Leinster took part in an 8-a-side tournament at TRR yesterday played on a round robin basis.

All competitors, many of whom had been coached by Jenny either at Taney NS or YMCA, played with great spirit in a lively atmosphere. It was particularly pleasing to welcome newcomers Castleknock National School to the Primary School section.

The final was a closely contested affair between Delgany NS and Whitechurch NS. Delgany came out on top with goals from Daniel Joyce and Uilliam Blythman with Stuart Ronan replying for Whitechurch.

Jenny's family Philip, David and Sarah presented a beautiful cup to the winners, a great tribute to a special person and it is hoped to make this an annual event.
