We are incredibly proud to announce that SGS rower Adam Foley has been selected to represent Ireland at the ‘Coupe de la Jeunesse’ Beach Sprints, taking place in Portugal at the start of October. Adam started rowing in school in first year and quickly moved up the ranks. He won numerous medals at indoor rowing competitions, becoming the schools most successful rower to date. Adam was invited to join Sligo Rowing Club and continued his success at local and national regattas. It is an incredible achievement for Adam to have earned this green jersey and a hugely proud moment for his family and everyone here in Sligo Grammar School. Adam will be travelling to Portugal under the guidance of Rowing Ireland coach Sean Molloy along with a team of 8 junior rowers from all over Ireland. The ‘Coupe de la Jeunesse’ Beach Sprints is an Olympic standard rowing event of the International Rowing Federation for European athletes in the under-19 category. Adam is entered in the Mix2x along with Ava Sexton of Wicklow Rowing Club. This achievement speaks to the consistency, discipline and dedication Adam has shown over the past 5 years. We wish him the very best of luck in this competition.
