Bag Pack
The juvenile club are holding their

to raise adequate funding for the juvenile club and all parents are asked to
help out volunteering their time. We respectfully ask parents to volunteer two
hours on any one of these days to achieve a successful outcome. Please contact
our juvenile secretary Audrey on 087 (6987388) if you would be willing to help.
All help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
Facebook for Féile

facebook page Abbeyside/Ballinacourty and camogie Féile 2016 for updates on the
upcoming Féile news. A big thank you must go to Sharon Kiely for setting this
up.
Membership
We would ask all parents who have
not yet paid the membership to do so as soon as possible for insurance reasons.
Under 8
Our Under 8 team took part in a
football blitz in Carriganore on Saturday morning last. The kids had a great
day out and the day seemed to be enjoyed by all. Special thanks must go to the
parents who travelled on the day. Training continues for this group on Saturday
morning at 10.30.
Under 14
We played the Under 14 Féile Football
semi final on Friday last against Gaultir. We tried hard throughout the game
but in the end we lost out to a very strong city team.
Under 16
We beat Gaultir last Monday night in
Abbeyside in the Under 16 Football Championship on a score line of 2-15 to 1-6.
This win has qualified us for the semi finals which will be played on Sunday 8th
May.
Under 13 and Under 10
Our Under13 football team got a
walkover against Tramore at the weekend and our next match here is against
Stradbally next week. If we win this game we will have qualified for the semi
final so we wish all the lads well.
Our under 10 team are still training
hard for their upcoming annual Ballyduff tournament.
County Minor
We had five representatives on the
county minor football panel that lost out to All Ireland champions Kerry in the
Fraher Field on Wednesday two weeks ago. On the night Waterford lost out to an
extremely strong Kerry team who are going for a three in a row of All Ireland
titles. The lads lost nothing in defeat and acquitted themselves well on the
night. The players involved were namely James Beresford who captained the team,
Aoron Beresford, Tony Collins, Sean Whealan Barrett and Tom Looby. My sincere
apologies to all concerned for the omission of this piece last week. They play
Limerick tonight Wednesday in Leamybrien in the next round and we wish all the
lads well and hopefully a large turnout from Abbeyside/Ballinacourty will be
present on the night.
Well done also to Neil Montgomery
and Darragh McGrath who were involved with the county minor hurling team on
Saturday last where they had a great win over Tipperary at Walsh Park. Well
done lads.
