Saul are Crowned All Ireland Balled Group Champions 2016

Sunday 3rd April 2016

Well done to Saul GAC on winning the Bailéad Ghrúpa at All-Ireland Scór Sinsear Finals which took place on Saturday

Saul ballad Group returned to their home club to a large crowd of supporters on Sunday evening.  After an outstanding performance in the INEC Killarney to be crowned All Ireland Ballad Group champions Gareth, Angela, Caithlin, Catherine & Grainne were over whelmed with the turn out.  Returning to home soil with their  All Ireland title was special.

Saul Ballad Group and Gareth in Recitation did themselves proud in putting on two fine performances.  Emotional scenes followed the results as all their hard work had been rewarded in Balled Group with the Recitation competition being a very close close call and Gareth narrowly missing out on a second medal. Well done to you all.
