Basketball

Coaches: Ms. Kennington & Ms. Gutiérrez

Basketball is an established team sport at Our Lady of Lourdes, with students competing in the South East Schools Basketball League every year. The school enters teams at four age levels: First Year, Second Year, Under-16 and Under-19. This structure allows students to develop their skills over time, gain experience in competitive matches and progress through the school’s basketball pathway.

The school has a strong record of success and participation. In 2001, Our Lady of Lourdes won its first ever Senior All-Ireland basketball title, marking a major achievement for the school. More recently, in 2018, the First Year team won the South East title and finished third in the All-Ireland competition, showing continued development and commitment from students and coaches.

Basketball remains a popular sport within the school, offering students a chance to build confidence, fitness and a positive team spirit.
