The National Masters championships were held in glorious sunshine in Tullamore on Sunday 15th August. DSD was well represented in all disciplines! It is great to see the growth in numbers of our Masters athletes competing! Pat Logan (V1) had great times in both his sprint events and Michael McGarry (V9) got triple gold in the throwing events.
