Sport

What we offer

Nano Nagle College offers a range of extra-curricular activities such as Soccer, Gaelic Football, Camogie/Hurling, Basketball and Athletics. We are always looking to expand our sporting activities for students with other sporting interests – Please reach out to Ms. Long if you wish to get involved in a new sport that we don’t already offer. 

Training

Training is held during school time as well as after school. These trainings never clash, therefore students have the opportunity to be a part of multiple extra-curriculars at the same time, which is encouraged.

Soccer (Ms. Long/ Ms. White)  Monday 4-5pm 
Football (Mr. Collins/ Mr. Rea)  Tuesday 4-5pm 
Camogie/Hurling (Mr. Collins/ Mr. Rea)  Tuesday 4-5pm 
Basketball (Ms. Long/ Ms. Walsh)  Wednesday 1:20-2:20pm 
Athletics (Ms. Long)  Thursday 4-5pm 

Participation

All students are encouraged to get involved in extra-curricular activities as they play a vital role in a student’s overall development. There are endless advantages to participating in physical activity that can benefit the students in and beyond the classroom such as:

  • Personal Growth
  • Social Skills
  • Positive Wellbeing
  • Time Management and Discipline
  • Health Benefits
  • Leadership Opportunities
  • Better Academic Performance

Recent Success

For the first time, NNC entered boys teams into competitions this year and have been hugely successful. The 1st year soccer team reached the last 10 schools in Munster in the Collins Cup competition and the 1st year basketball team were just as impressive, becoming Regional Finalists and coming away with silver medals.
