Donegal Schools win LTP Competition

Ulster GAA, through its Live to Play programme, promoted a ‘visibility’ message to young members throughout the winter period across County Donegal.

The imaginative campaign encourages aspiring young GAA players to become stars on the pitch while staying safe off it in winter’s dark mornings and evenings.

Cleverly titled ‘GAA Stars, Seen by Cars’, the campaign was out in Primary schools across Ulster. Close to 20,000 children took part with 18 classes emerging successful, 2 in each County. All pupils in the winning classes were awarded a Live to Play backpack featuring the County GAA crest and reflective piping and stripes to ensure the carrier is visible in the dark.

Donegal winners were: 3rd Class, St. Patrick’s GNS Carndonagh and 5th Class in Scoil Mhuire, Creeslough.
