Primary Games
Best of luck to Séan Crotty and Caoimhe Dwyer from Abbeyside NS who; will be representing Waterford in the Primary Game. They will be playing at half time during the Waterford – Clare game this Sunday. This is a great achievement for Séan and Caoimhe and hopefully one of the many times they will represent their county.

Under 9’s (players born in 2003)
After a quiet few weeks, the under 9’s played a few matches in the last week or so.
First up our under 9’s got invited to play in the Ballyduff under 10 tournament where they won one game and were beaten by only 3pts and 1 pt in the other two matches. It was a terrific team performance against the under 10’s which no doubt will stand to them for next year.
We also travelled out to Brickey Rangers to play few matches which was followed by up by a trip to Youghal GAA Club to play an under 9 blitz last Saturday.
We had 2 teams of 10 under 9 players represent the club which saw them each play games against Cobh, Fermoy and Youghal. Both teams gave a great account of themselves and all enjoyed a great mornings hurling.
Many thanks to all the parents and supporters who travelled and supported the teams.
Many thanks to Alan Geary from Youghal GAA for the invite and for the party bags, tea and sandwiches served afterwards in their beautiful clubhouse.
