Indoor Hurling
Our indoor hurling sessions have begun again in the
Friary College every Friday night. Our under 5 and 6 team has their session
between 6 and 6:45 and our under 7 teams session runs from 6:45 till half past
7. New members are always welcome. Meanwhile out under 8, 9 and ten groups have
opted for outdoor hurling at the ball wall every Friday night. Again all are
welcome. Times for the ball wall sessions will be given by text to those
involved.
Under 16
Pride of place this week goes to our under 16 football
team who won the county championship on Saturday morning last. Played at the
Fraher Field against Gaultir this was really a game that had everything. We
played some excellent football on the day and in a match which could have gone
either way at the finish a last minute Eoin Kiely goal gave us victory and it was
wonderful to see this group of players celebrating their first county
championship as a group. After the game we were treated to a meal at the Gold
Coast and we would like to thank the Gold Coast for organising the meal in such
a short period of time. Everyone in the club would like to congratulate all the
players and mentors involved and hopefully this is the first of many county titles
for this group of players. It was a fantastic way to finish off the year for
the club.
Australian Visit
Next Monday night should be an interesting night at the
Burgery for our under 15 and under 16 football teams. On the night we take on
an Australian selection of players who visit our parish as part of a nationwide
tour. This should be a fantastic night for all players involved to get to play
against sportspeople of a different code. The under 15 games throws in at 6
followed by an under 16 match at 7. Everyone is more than welcome to attend
which should be a great night for everyone involved in the club.
