As most of you are aware perhaps the most important set of races in the cross country calendar are fast approaching. This Sunday the Phoenix Park is holding the Inter Club Cross Country Championship of Ireland. DSD have teams (named below) representing them in all categories and will be once again chasing the magic four titles that was won for the first time in AAI history a few years ago.

Supporters are requested to cheer on our teams and with the race being held so close to home a good turn-out is expected to see the first race kick-off at 1300. 

As usual, there will be a meal to celebrate another highly successful cross country held after the race and of course all competing athletes will be paid for (details below).

We wish all our athletes the very best of luck and expect to see you all afterwards.

As mentioned above there will be a meal held at 1800 in Bewley's Hotel in Leopardstown. It will comprise of 3 courses including a complementary glass of wine and tea/coffee. All athletes competing on the day will be paid for by the club but any guests wishing to attend will be required to pay €25. We hope to see you all there.
