Connolly, a Leaving Cert student in the Moyside school, is part of the first-team squad in Ballina RFC and came off the bench in the team's opening round Junior League win in Creggs recently.

Conor Moore turned in a Man of the Match display at Number-Eight while young out-half Eoin Golden linked the forwards and backs impressively as the squad coached by Gary Kavanagh, Richard West and Jack Murphy recorded a hard-earned win.
