Summer Championships 2026

A young lady has mislaid her dancing shoes. Not ideal as nationals are next week.

If anyone has accidentally picked up size 3.5 Hullachan hugs, could ypu please get in touch so we can reunite them with the dancing feet they belong to.

Due to the wonderful entries this year, I have donated €1500 to a charity close to my heart. With 3 nephews diagnosed with Autism, I know the daily struggles that families have to go through day in, day out. So if this helps one family, I would be honoured to support them.
Thank you all for your support last weekend.
