St. Mary’s Aghagallon winners of the Léiriú Stáitse at the UlsterScór na nÓg final in Downpatrick on Saturday.
The Ulster Scór na nÓg Final took place on Saturday in a packed St Patrick’s Grammar School in Downpatrick. 4 Antrim acts were in the final which was a huge achievement for the County.
The Ceili Dancers from Aghagallon danced their socks off and gave a beautiful performance of the Cross Reel in their third successive Ulster final. But luck wasn’t on their side and unfortunately missed out on the Ulster title this time. Meabh Mc Neill from Lamh Dhearg was next up in the solo singing competition and performed excellently. She sang a lovely song about the Island of Gola but sadly missed out on Ulster glory to a singer from Cavan. Mary Kate Bonnes from Tír na nÓg was the shining star that she always is and had the audience laughing many times during her great performance. Unfortunately she missed out on an Ulster title but will no doubt be back fighting for the title again next year. Aghagallon were the last Antrim act to perform in the Léiriú section. Their acting, attention to detail and expressions were amazing and they were crowned Ulster champions. This was an amazing achievement for these young people and they will now go on to compete at National level in the All Ireland Final in Sligo IT on 17th February.
