Senior Football: On Monday evening last our senior footballers cleared a massive hurdle in round two of the County open draw championship, when at Cashel they defeated a strongly fancied Aherlow side 1-08 to 0-06.
Playing a tight brand of football they never allowed the opposition to open up play, thus making amends for our County semi final defeat of last year by the Glen boys. The incentive to win a divisional title is now huge as it would put you in a County semi final. Well done to all.
Minor Hurling: Our team were defeated by a point by Thurles Sarsfields on Wednesday evening last in Thurles.
Junior Hurling: We were defeated by Templetuohy on Saturday evening last in Templetuohy, despite a valiant effort. We now at least must win our remaining two games to stay in contention.
County Hurling League: In division one of the County league we still remain with just one defeat when we overcame J K Brackens in a high scoring encounter in Templemore. It is expected that semi finals will be played in this competition.
Fund Raising: Work for Rehab Care(Autism) commenced on Saturday last. We continue on this Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. A large amount of collectors are required for those days. All report to committed to declare your availability (most important).
Speedy Recovery: Our club stalwart Sean Mockler has returned to hospital where we wish him a speedy recovery to health.
Sympathy: Many of our parishioners suffered bereavements in the past week. Our sympathy to all concerned R.I.P.
Fixtures: Senior hurling Riain Cup on this Friday night in Borrisoleigh at 7.00pm. We face Moneygall in what is a do or die game to remain in the championship contention. All players to be on time as appointed.

Junior Football: On Tuesday night last in Castleiney our junior footballers virtually put and end to their championship run with a second defeat tin the group, this time by 1-16 to 1-07 to Drom. For various reasons we have failed to field at full strength and thus paid the price.
Senior Football: On Friday night last in Templemore our senior football team got the defence of their Mid title away to a winning start by defeating Templetuohy 1-09 to 1-06 with a varied performance over the hour.

Minor Hurling: On Wednesday night last in Castleiney our minor A hurlers commenced the defence of the Mid and County titles with a 2-17 to 1-11 victory over Drom.
This was a hard fought victory and at times we seemed to lose control of the game, however with a better balanced side we finished quite well for an important victory in a four team group in which the top team goes into the final.
Hard Luck: We say hard luck to Ciaran McGrath who had a fine game at wing back for the Tipperary footballers v Dublin at the weekend.
Launch Night: On this Saturday night at 8.45pm in Loughmore Community Centre the launch for our bucket collection in aid of our club development and Rehab Care will take place.

The good ladies are asked to supply the usual confectionary and help on the night.
