Langan Cup
On
Saturday 20th October, our U8s hosted the Langan Cup, competing against the
finest that Waterford and Cork had to offer in Mt. Sion from the east, Lismore
from the west and representing Cork were St. Finbarr’s bringing two teams with
them on the day. The games started at 11.30 with teams of 12 aside all to play
each other in games of 16 mins per game. A total of 83 scores were witnessed
throughout the tournament with fine individual and team performances on show
for all to see. Abbeyside ran out winners on the day ensuring that they kept
the silverware in the village for the next 12 months. Congrats lads and well
done on a strong team effort. Many thanks must be given out to everybody
involved starting with the referees Eoin Kiely and Eamon Crotty who were given
late notice the night before but were delighted to help out. Thanks lads.
Thanks to the parents yet again who supplied food for the travelling teams and
to the mothers who served it up. Your support is much appreciated. Thanks to
the club for supplying crisps and drinks for 80 children and to the teams that
travelled from afar to make this event an enjoyable one. But most of all to the
Langan family who was represented by Mary Rossiter, June McShane and June’s son
Padraic and grandchildren Rosie, Sally and Sarah who presented to cup to the
villagers on a beautiful sunny afternoon. Thanks to all involved on the day
from the U8 squad.
