Feile Fast Approaching
We intend to hold a sponsored walk and run on the
13th March at 5.30 pm in aid of the Feile 2016. Everyone is welcome to
participate including young and old, so grab your trainers and put this date in
your diary and help raise a few Euro to host this prestigious event in
June.
Under 16
Our Under
16 footballers start their county championship campaign this coming weekend
against Tramore. This team has been preparing away quietly for the last few
weeks and hopefully they will get their campaign off to a winning start. All in
the club wish everyone involved well.
Under 14
Our Under
14 team were due to take on Tramore in the Under 14 Football Championship first
round game on Sunday last. However due to poor weather conditions this game
was called off along with all other under 14 matches in the county. This game
will now have to be played at a later date. The next game for this group of
players is pencilled in for a fortnight’s time against Gaultir.
Membership
Membership for 2016 for our
juvenile players is now due. We ask for parents to co-operate with us and pay
the membership as soon as possible. This is to make sure that all players are
insured as if they are not members they are not insured which is outside our
control.
Under 11
Under eleven hurling training
continues this Friday night between 6 and 7 pm. New members are always welcome
and membership forms will be handed out on the night.
Under 10 and 13
Training for the Under 10 and Under
13 age groups will go ahead again this Friday night in the wall ball. The Under
10 team will train between 7 and 8 pm and the Under 13 team will train between
8 and 9 pm. All are welcome to attend.
Under 8
On Saturday week last the 13th February
our Under 8 football team took part in a blitz in Kilgobinet. On the day all
the lads performed well and all who took part really enjoyed the experience.
Well done to all.
Under 9
On Saturday morning last our Under
9 hurling team took part in their first blitz of the year in Kilgobinet. Again
all accounted themselves well on the day and showed steady improvement on the
year before. All must have been out practising against their walls at home over
the winter. The action continues this weekend for this group of players when
they will travel to the same venue for a football blitz.
Outdoor Hurling
The underage outdoor hurling
season began on Saturday morning last for the groups between Under 5 and Under
8. The Under 9 team would usually be included in these sessions too but were
playing a blitz last weekend and have another one coming up this weekend. These
sessions continue this Saturday February 27th 2016 for anyone between the ages
of 5 and 8. New members are always welcome and hurleys and helmets will be
available on the day. These sessions will continue weekly on a Saturday morning
between 10.30 am and 11.30. This and next Saturday which are February 27th and
March 5th will be allocated as membership days where we hope to collect all the
membership for the relevant age groups.
Minor Football
Our minor football team got their
championship up and running on Sunday morning last against the Nire. After a hard
fought game throughout our lads came away with a fairly comfortable victory in
the end. We played some good football throughout but like in all games we need
to show improvment as we go on in the championship if we are to progress.
