Juvenile Notes - 11th November

AGM

Just a reminder to all that the juvenile AGM takes place on Thursday night, 19th November at the clubhouse at 8 pm. All parents are invited to come along on the night.

Under 15 Hurling

On Sunday morning next our Under 15 hurling team take on St. Oliver’s in the Western Under 15 Final at Fraher Field, Dungarvan. At the time of going to print the time of this game has not yet been confirmed. Everyone in the club would like to wish this team well and hopefully there will be a large turnout on the day to cheer on the lads.

Table Quiz

On Friday night, 20th November the juvenile section of the club are running a table quiz in Minnies at 8 pm. This is a fundraising quiz and any money made on the night will go towards the cost of hosting two visiting Australian Rules teams in December. This should be a great night’s entertainment and everyone young and old are more than welcome to come along.

Camogie Notes - 11th November

U13 Camogie County Final

On Saturday, 18th October the U13 Camogie girls made history by becoming the first Camogie team in Abbeyside to win a county title. The Abbeyside Camogie Club was founded 5 years ago and Saturday’s victory was the result of the time and effort put in by the girls. The girls started well with an early goal which helped to calm the nerves; throughout the game the girls worked extremely hard displaying a high skill level. There were scenes of jubilation at the final whistle when the scoreboard showed that Abbeyside had won their first county title in Camogie. The girls then went to the Park Hotel to celebrate the victory. Thanks to the county board for giving the girls the opportunity to play in the Fraher Field. The club would like to thank the girls for the efforts they put in to training over the last 5 years and to all of the parents who helped out throughout the year.

We would also like to congratulate the Abbeyside U13 Footballers on their recent victory over St. Pat’s in the county final.

County Junior Football (Intermediate Attached) Champions

Congratulations to our Junior footballers and management team on their comprehensive 4-6 to 0-6 victory over Bunmahon in the County Junior Football (Intermediate Attached) Final played at Stradbally this afternoon. This is our first county title at this grade and a great vindication of the decision to field a third adult football team for the first time in a number of years.
