County Senior Hurling League: In very mild and sunny conditions at Cappawhite sports field on Sunday afternoon our senior hurlers had a narrow victory 2-16 to 2-15 over the home side in the first round of the County league division 1 game. Despite being short come of our established players, we had some fine individual displays and while 2-16 was a creditable tally the conceding of 2-15 will have to be addressed. While it is early days yet we must remember that the championship commences in two weeks time and a big step up will be required if we are to make headway in a very competitive group of Holycross, Upperchurch and J K Brackens. Our first game is v Holycross with the top team in group making it to the semi finals. All players are asked to attend appointed training sessions and be on time to finish on time.

U/21 AFootball:
On Sunday last in The Ragg our U/21 footballers retained their Mid title in dramatic fashion with a 3-15 to 5-02 victory over J K Brackens following extra time(see report).
This was a game in which our normal time performance differed from time to time and we almost paid the ultimate price. However extra time proved different as a big step up in our performance yielded some great scores to see the captain Cian Hennessy collect the cup from Mid chairman Matty Ryan amid jubilation from the players and supporters. They now face Arravale Rovers in the County semi final. Congratulations to all concerned.

U/21A Football: On Wednesday night last in Dr. Morris Park our U21A footballers had a comfortable victory over Moycarkey in the Mid semi final on a 4-12 to 1-05 score line.
At the end of a hard fought first period we led 1-06 to 0-03 in cold but dry conditions. A step up in the second half performance yielded some fine scores and adding a further 3-06 to book a date with J K Brackens in the final.
U/21A Football Mid Final: On Sunday next at 3.00pm in The Ragg we face J K Brackens in the Mid final. This is a big game for the team and despite the inclement weather over recent months a good effort has been put in by all. Lets hope it will come to fruition on Sunday afternoon. Your support would be welcome.
