Olympic spot secured, O’Dwyer jumps for joy

HIGH jump sensation Adrian O’Dwyer, was jumping for Olympic qualification in Algiers last week but on Saturday he will be jumping for joy at The Mardyke in Cork where he will again treat fans to the type of performance that saw him clear 2.30m and claim his place in Athens.

His effort last week in Algiers in between appearances in Iceland on Sunday and Dublin on Friday night has earned him star billing for the BUPA Cork City Sports.

Last year he captivated his audience until the very end of the meet, clearing 2.21m to win the competition.
