Drug free sevens





In one of the most dramatic finishes to a school gaelic football tournament, St.Conval's secured victory in the dying minutes of extra time to beat holders St.Mungo's 1-5 to 1-4 in the final of the 'Drug Free' sevens in Glasgow's Kelvin Hall International Arena. Both sides had earlier tied on eight points with Victoria Primary following the round robin series. However, St. Mungo's comfortably disposed of Victoria to set up the final play off with St. Conval's. After the end of normal time the teams could not be separated, and the subsequent extra time produced the dramatic finish, which capped off a very enjoyable tournament for all the participants. St Mungo's did have the consolation of receiving the player of the tournament award, which went to eleven-year-old Mark Scott, who received a trophy and vouchers from Dunnes Stores, who sponsored the tournament.
The sevens, now in its third year, is organised by the club, as part of their health promotion and drug awareness programme at community level. Each of the children from the seven participating teams received a health promotion pack and information on the GAA and the club.
