Scoil Mhichil Naofa National Primary School Athy Co Kildare is one of our member schools who accepted two fold up snooker tables where the students have access to cue sports. This school caters for 305 girls
As part of our National Development plan, we have made great progress in seeing participation among young girls increase over the past 8 years.
Part of our 10 year plan is to set up a coaching programme within our member schools where the students can learn the basics.
Our main objective is to step up participation and awareness among young girls and encourage them to play cue sports with the knowledge that the Republic of Ireland Ladies Snooker Association are there to help and support all the way, should they wish to advance through the levels within the Association.
While many of our girls play within the school domain, some have ventured out to play competitively at National Intermediate and Amateur events that are available to them.
Our National Primary School Championship, National U21 Championship and National Special Needs Championship have been well attended and supported over the past 8 years along with events at County level.
We hope to get this school and many others back up and running by the end of 2021.
