Hockey success praised

Councillor Carla Lockhart congratulated four young ladies from within the borough - Natalie Barr, Louise Murray, Chloe McCann and Jill Edgar - all of whom participated in the Ulster team and subsequently won the Gold Medal in the UK School Games.

"This is a credit to the young people of this borough," said Councillor Lockhart.

The DUP councillor also took the opportunity to congratulate Lurgan College on their recent success in winning the National Schools trophy for hockey.

"This is the first time in the school’s history to win this trophy and again this is the proof of the great talent we possess within this borough," she said.
