Gerry always encourages me and made me more confident in myself by putting me at those start lines. He made it possible for my team mates and me to achieve our All Ireland medals in 2019 something I will always cherish. I wouldn’t be where I am today without Ennis Track.

In a muddy, wet, cowpat filled field in Kilnaboy we knew there was no turning back.  Sophie walked timidly into that field, looking at her feet, avoiding the puddles and dirt.  But going home, with a medal around her neck and 6 different colours of “mud” up her legs, she held her head high and splashed in any puddle she could find.  Joy unbridled.

I am 100% sure that my eldest is still running ONLY because she is a member of Ennis Track.  In any other club, like many teenage girls, she might have dropped out of the sport but not in this group.  This is a vibrant ambitious group that encourages these kids to ‘be best you can be’, and have fun making friends along the way.
