Well Done
Well done to the two local schools Scoil Garbháin and Garranbane NS on reaching the finals of the boys and girls national schools Western finals respectively that were played at Dungarvan GAA Club over the weekend. While neither were successful in their quest for victory both played very well on the day and were unlucky in defeat. As always the club would like to thank all the teachers in the parish who give of their time to promote our games in their schools.

Under 16
Our Under 16 footballers wrapped up the year of competitive action for the juvenile club at the Fraher Field on Saturday morning last when they played the Western Final of the Under 16 Football competition. After losing the county final of this competition earlier in the year narrowly these lads were determined to take at least one title from their year’s efforts. They took on the Nire on a very windy day. After being against the wind in the first half they played some outstanding football against the elements and led by two goals at half time. In the second half with the wind the lads pulled away to win well in the end against a gallant Nire outfit. Team captain Patrick Power raised the cup on behalf of a team that really deserved some silverware at the end of a long hard year. Well done to all the players and management involved.
