Under 16 Football

Our Under 16 footballers started their championship campaign on Monday night of last week against our near neighbours in Dungarvan at the Burgery. After kicking some great scores and playing well as a team our lads pulled away at the end in what was a very good display of football. There are a lot of fixtures coming up in the next few weeks at this grade so the players should check training times etc with the team management.

Juvenile Notes - 21st August

Minor

Our minor hurling team played their third round of the county minor hurling championship campaign last Tuesday evening against a very strong Dungarvan outfit. We played well in the first half but Dungarvan ran out easy winners at the end.

Everyone in the club would like to wish Eamonn Crotty a speedy recovery after he picked up a nasty hand injury in this game. We hope to see this talented player back on the playing fields as soon as possible.

Our under16 football county championship campaign got under way on Monday last against near neighbours Dungarvan.

At the time of going to print the result of this match is unavailable but it will be included in next week’s notes.
