In December last year, the Student Services office announced its Sports Photograph Competition for the 2012/2013 academic year. With many of the Sports Clubs activities taking place off campus, they often end up less visible than their Society counterparts. The competition provided an opportunity to promote the importance of sport at RCSI and the value it brings to student life.

Over the last number of months, entries from teams and spectators alike have been pouring in, right up to the 17 May deadline. The Student Services Office was amazed at the high quality photos submitted and the range of experiences and activities portrayed.

After careful consideration we've crowned the winners!

First prize was awarded to Colm O'Reilly from the Karate Club for a photo of a team practice session on the Silver Strand beach in Galway during their trip back in November.

The second prize was awarded to Brian O'Meara and the Climbing Club for a photo of some of the Club's members on a day out in Glendalough in April.

The competition was initially advertised with only two prizes, but due to the quality of the submissions we decided to select a third place winner as well, and this was awarded to Q-En Chung from the Table Tennis Club for this photo of an RCSI player at a practice session during the year.

Congratulations to the winners who take home One4all vouchers. The Student Services Office would like to thank everyone who took part in the competition. Look out for the competitions return in 2013/2014.
