CC/GC Rugby Team win Aidan Ross Memorial Cup !!

Coláiste Choilm recently won the Aidan Ross Memorial Cup, which was held in Dunmanway RFC on Thursday the 28th of April. The school entered two teams into the competition as the sport is growing in popularity amongst our students.

Our 'A' side beat Clonakilty Community School in a dramatic final. A great team effort was produced by the players throughout the tournament. Pictured below being presented the cup is team captain Ciaran Bohane (who currently plays with Ballincollig RFC and is involved with Munster RFC at underage).

27 Musicals Later

We are in our 25th year of the school but we are embarking on our 27th Musical Production. The fact that we had two in some years accounts for this. A unique feature of the Musical is that we invariably have two and occasionally three casts performing on the different nights. It is the ultimate nightmare for sound technicians but ensures optimum opportunity for the abundance of talented performers.

It is difficult to talk of favourites but a full production of HMS Pinafore which managed "to sail" in the Ballincollig G.A.A. Pavilion in 1987 in our first year was memorable. "Jesus Christ Superstar" was the first production to feature in the School Culturlann. Les Miserables was a first for an amateur group in Ireland and one of the most ambitious undertakings.
