Johnny in the medals
A DOLLINGSTOWN teenager with special needs has picked up two gold medals at the Winter Special Olympics qualifiers.
Unfortunately 13-year-old Johnny Lyness missed out on selection for the Irish team for the games in Korea, but his dad Maurice said it won’t bother his fun-loving son.
Johnny, a pupil at Ceara School, was competing as part of a team from Skiability based at Craigavon Golf and Ski Centre at the Special Olympics Ireland Winter Games in Dublin.
