Underage Hurling
Underage hurling
training for U5, 6, 7 and 8 will take place this Saturday morning 29th August
in the club grounds. The session begins at 10:30. We are looking forward to seeing
some of the new faces that participated in the ‘Hurling on the Green’ come and
join in our regular Saturday sessions. All children are welcome to attend.
Minor Hurling
On Thursday last we
took on Roanmore in the 5th round of the county minor hurling championship at
home. After a good display by everyone involved we came away with victory on
the night. We are now after winning all our matches in the group stages so far
and have qualified for the knockout stages. Our next match at this level takes
place on Thursday, 3rd September against Clonea in Clonea.
Under 16
On Monday of last
week we took on De Le Salle in the under 16 hurling championship. On the night
the city team were slicker and sharper to every ball and came away with a
comprehensive victory. Our next match up here is next Monday night the 31st
August at home to Mount Sion.
Under 15
Pride and place this
week goes to our under 15 football team who on Sunday last won the Under 15
Western Football Final against a gallant St Oliver’s team. On the day the lads
played some lovely football and many thanks must go to all the players and
mentors involved.
Under 14
We were beaten in the
5th round of the County Under 14 Hurling Championship this week against
Passage. Next match here is against Lismore in the quarter final on the 7th
September.
We would like to wish
everyone involved in the Tony Forristal and Sonny Walsh tournaments this
weekend well. We have three players involved and of course we are represented
on the Tony Forristal team by selector Michael Kelleher also.
Under 13
Our Under 13 hurlers
were due to play Lismore last night Tuesday in the under 13 championship. At
the time of going to print the result of this match was not available but will
be included in next week’s notes.
Hurling on the Green
Hurling on the Green
will take place this Wednesday night, 26th August between 7:00pm and 8:00pm in
Sallybrook.
