DCU Mercy Announce Award Winners for the 2019-2020 Season
DCU MERY BASKETBALL CLUB
2019-2020 SEASON
Hi all,
We hope you are all staying well and positive in these strange times. It is now the official end to our season and this Friday 29th May, would have been our annual awards night for the 2019-2020 season.
Unfortunately, we cannot be together to celebrate our achievements throughout the season, which unfortunately ended prematurely. However, we just wanted to let you know that despite everything that happened our coaches were able to nominate their award winners.
Congratulations to all our winners and when we get the go ahead to resume we will start our season off with a celebration to mark this occasion and to present the awards.
A huge thank you to all our coaches and players for the time and effort they put into the season. A big thank you to all the parents who helped out throughout the season, especially at the under 10 Blitz and to the young players who gave up their time to do the score for all the games as well.
