East Cavan Eagles to host Senior Top 4's St Patrick's Weekend

Well we are not sure if basketball was around when St. Patrick landed on our fair isle but if it had been, he certainly would not have banished it.
 
East Cavan Eagles have been selected to host this year’s NEBB (North East Basketball Board) Senior Men & Ladies Top Four Tournament.
The games will take place in Virginia College over two days, Saturday 18th of March for the semi-finals and Sunday 19th of March for the finals.
 
Teams from Castleblayney, Oldcastle, Navan, Drogheda and Virginia will take part in what promises to be a very exciting weekend of sport.

The senior game of basketball has enjoyed a tremendous resurgence in the North East Region over the past few years and the numbers of spectators have grown steadily. The games are fast paced and contested with great energy, many new spectators are amazed at the pace of the game. If you have not yet witnessed a game, we suggest to come down to Virginia College and be entertained.
