Coláiste Chríost Rí Open New Sports Hall

The Committee and members of Leevale extend their congratulations and very best wishes to Coláiste Chríost Rí on the opening of their new €2m Sports Hall.

Since the foundation of Leevale there has always been a great relationship between Chriost Ri and Leevale. One of the school’s most prominent athletes is Marcus O’Sullivan who won three World indoor 1,500m titles and is now head coach at Villanova University. Leevale is delighted to acknowledge the achievements of the school in winning the All Round cup at the South Munster Schools track and field championships, as well as the boys junior cup at the Munster championships.

We wish Coláiste Chríost Rí best wishes at the All Ireland schools championships in Tullamore this weekend and hope our relationship with the school continues to prosper for many years to come.
