Update
The
U6 boys hit for Bohadoon recently where they enjoyed a football blitz where
they had great craic playing the Brickeys, St. Olivers and St. Pats. This was their second outing in as many weeks
having played in Kilmacthomas earlier this month. It’s excellent to see our
youngest members taking to the field to represent the club, playing games and
having is what it’s all about!

U8
The
U8 hurlers descended upon Carriganore to take part in a blitz organized be
Déise Óg. The boys played teams from all
across the county and gave a great account of themselves.
U9
The
U9’s were due to travel across the border to play Midleton in a hurling blitz last
week. The bags were packed, the bus was
booked and the boys were bulling to go but the heavy downpours on the prior
night meant that the Midleton grounds were unplayable so we had to pull the
plug. The boys will now switch to
football for the remainder of the year, training Thursday evenings and Saturday
mornings.
U10
Our
U10 hurlers represented the club in the annual Frank Meagher tournament, hosted
by St. Mary’s of Clonmel. The lads had a
fantastic day’s hurling playing teams from Tipperary, Cork, Wexford &
Kildare. It was a very well run event,
played in the spirit of the GAA Go Games.
Well done boys!

U13
The
division 1 county hurling semi-final, which had been refixed to Thursday 14th
September, fell victim to the orange weather warning. The match was finally played on Saturday
morning in a well turned out Kill pitch.
The Abbeyside boys gave it their all but it wasn’t to be for them on the
day. Ballygunner took an early lead into
the wind in the first half and were able to keep edging away. Our lads started very well in the second half
and competed tenaciously with their opponents from the city, but in the end
Ballygunner progress to the county final with a scoreline of 3:16 to 1:04. Special mention must go to Darrach McGrath
who was outstanding in goal for the Village.
All of our U13 panel must be commended for the spirit and heart that our
boys showed to the end, is testament to their character. There’s a bright future ahead for this group.
U15
Both
our division 4 and division 2 hurling teams were in semi final action last
week, playing An Gaeltacht and Micheal McCraith Tramore respectively. The division 4 match didn’t go our way but
the attitude of our boys must be was admirable as they never gave up, even when
playing against a team that surely would be able to compete comfortably a
division or two higher. The U15 season
comes to an end for the division 4 team now but they’ve done really well
through the year and have shown impressive development.
Happily,
the division 2 semi final went better for us.
The lads beat Micheal McCraith Tramore with a scoreline of 2:12 to 0:12
and they now face Clan na Geal in a county final on Monday 25th
September in Carriganore. It hasn’t been
a straight forward path to the final for this panel and they’ve faced down a
wide range of challenges, but they’ve always maintained their focus and have
produced some fine performances. They
are very deserving of their place in the county final and we wish them the best
of luck! Please make the effort to go
and support the boys, it makes a huge difference and it’s certain that Clan na
Gael will have a big following.
