Last Tuesday, Conor McGrath, Dave Edwards, Stephen Kearns and Sam Kidd from the South Dublin Panthers paid a visit to Presentation College Bray on the invitation of Jack Lawlor, a 2nd year Presentation College student. As part of a Sky Sports initiative to introduce minority sports to schools, the four Panthers put the students through their paces, giving them the opportunity to experience all the positions that American football has to offer. The students then put into practice all the skills they had learned in a game of “Burkey Ball”, a Panthers’ favourite version of flag football.
The Panthers organisation would like to thank Jack and all at Presentation College for hosting them and getting to know the sport we love. It’s safe to say that if these guys take up the sport their level of talent means that American Football’s future is in safe hands
