Wexford People
It was a weekend of outstanding achievements for WHBTC’s junior athletes recently, with remarkable performances in both tennis and sailing competitions across the country.
Our Junior tennis players are making a strong impact, with Jack Howell clinching the Under-18 boys singles title at Bishopstown LTC in Cork.
This victory is a testament to Jack’s hard work and dedication.
Our Junior sailing members also made waves over the same weekend, showcasing their skills at the Topper Ireland Traveller Event hosted by the Royal St. George Yacht Club in Dun Laoghaire.
A huge congratulations to Cian and Ben Allen, John Kenny, Sonny Lowney, Malachy Reynolds and Emmet Marcus for representing WHBTC with such dedication and enthusiasm.
Special recognition goes to John Kenny, who secured third place overall and first Under-14, and to Sonny Lowney, who achieved third place in the Regatta Fleet. It was an incredible performance from all, with some participating in their first-ever competition.
Further success was achieved at The Champions Cup in Schull, where Ireland’s top dinghy sailors competed from each of the youth classes.
Max Sweetman and Peter Kenny received invitations to attend, a notable accomplishment as these are highly sought after across all ISA dinghy classes.
Max finished in an impressive fifth place, while Peter secured twelfth. Well done to both!
The club is proud of all its young athletes for their dedication and hard work.
The fantastic results reflect the bright future of WHBTC in both tennis and sailing.
