Unfortunately our game against the Nire was called off due to the conditions in Ballymacarbry. We will play this at a later date. The weekend just gone we welcomed Lismore & Ballyduff Upper to Abbeyside. Again we played very well against Lismore and a big thanks to all our boys who helped out Lismore by lining out for them as they were short a few players. In the other game Ballyduff were strong and our boys battled hard for every ball. The panel who've played to date are Billy O Connell, Brian Callaghan, Cathal Sweeney, Conor Gough, Cormac Dunne Fitzgerald, Daniel Morrisey, Darragh Cosgrave, Darragh Walsh, Ethan Keohan, Fionn O Murchu, Jack O Donovan, Jake Fitzgerald Drummy, Jake O Donnell, Kieran Cosgrave, Sam Phelan, Sean Queally, Sean Walsh.
