Longford dancer secures All-Ireland Irish Dancing Championship crown with super performance

Congratulations to Ardagh's Joseph Farrell who won the U16 Irish Dancing National Championship in sun soaked Killarney at the weekend.

The Mercy Ballymahon student, who came fifth in the World Championships in Glasgow earlier this year, emerged victorious in a very competitive U16 category.

Joseph’s dancing school Doolan/Cullen were very happy with results and every one enjoyed the Indian summer in Kerry.
