Under 11
We got our Town & Country
campaign finally up and running after the Dungarvan game was cancelled, on
Thursday evening the 28th when we travelled to Colligan to play St. Pats. On a
lovely but cold evening we played some great hurling and deservedly came away
with the victory. Thanks to St. Pats for agreeing to change the game to
Thursday instead of the Friday. Panel on the night - Sean Walsh, Cathal
Sweeney, Jake Fitz Drummey, Jake O Donnell, Ethan Keohan, Daniel Morrisey, Kieran
Cosgrave, Billy O Donnell, Brian Callaghan, Jack O Donovan, Jamie Mulcahy, Sean
Queally, Darragh Cosgrave, Fionn Murchu, Conor Gough, Cormac Dunne Fitzgerald, Aodhan
Barrett, Sam Phelan. Missing on the night was Darragh Walsh who we wish a
speedy recovery from injury. Training this evening (Wednesday 7pm - 8pm) &
Friday 6pm - 7pm.
Under 13 and 10
Our Under 13 football team were due
to play against Stradbally on Monday night last in the championship in a must
win game. At the time of going to print the result of this match was not
available but will be included in next week’s notes.
Our under 10 team meanwhile travel
to Carriganore on Saturday next to take part in a hurling blitz and we all hope
they have a great day out.
Under 9
Our Under 9 team played An
Gaelteacht, St Pats, Dungarvan and Cappoquin in the last two weeks and some
great hurling and football was played by all. Last Saturday morning some of the
club senior players got involved in the training sessions and the young boys
really enjoyed it. Thank you must go to the senior lads for giving up their
time and hopefully we can make this a regular event. A big thank you also goes
to the parents for their continued support. Best wishes to the boys from this
group and the girls of the parish who are making their First Holy Communion
this weekend. We all hope that they all and their families have a great day.
County
Well done to our five
representatives on the county minor football team last Wednesday night in
Leamybrien where they took on Limerick. While defeat was their lot on the night
the team began the game very well before coming up against a stronger Limerick
team in the second half. All the lads trained hard for this championship and
they were a credit to themselves their families and their club at all times.
We also had a number of
representatives on the under 16 West Waterford team who won the Gleeson cup
against their East counterparts recently. Well done to all. We also have a
number of players on the under15 development squad as well as the Tony
Forristal and Sonny Walsh panels.
