St Ninian’s High School Fly the Flag for Scotland
St Ninian’s High School set off to Swansea in the early hours of this morning as they gear up for the start of the Allen McKinstry Cup which kicks off this weekend.
The three day event will see St Ninian’s compete in this tournament for the very first time. The Scottish Schools’ representatives take on two qualifiers from the Republic of Ireland and Wales while they hope the results go their way for the positional play-offs on Sunday morning as Swansea University host the event for the first time in the competition’s history.
We wish the boys all the very best of luck for this competition.
