Fingal Sport Round Up!
It has been a week of thrilling sports success for Fingal clubs, as basketball, rugby and football took centre stage, showcasing the talent and dedication of local athletes and volunteers.
Growing up playing for @SwordsBball I asked the chairman would there ever be a Thunder Women’s team. He said No.
To be commentating on the game, see former members in the crowd and win was so special. What a turnaround for this team, with 2 trophies and 2 finals in 2024!
