U/21A Hurling: On Sunday afternoon our U/21 hurlers faced Holycross in the long delayed Mid semi final. However after a thrilling contest, the sides finished level at 3-15 each following extra time.
Having got an early goal we faded for a period and fell eight points down after twenty minutes. However we just trailed 1-06 to 2-05 at half time. At the end of normal time it finished 2-11 each. Extra time continued to be an exciting affair, where we trailed 3-11 to 3-15 at half time. However we fought back again in the final ten minutes in which both sides had chances of outright victory, but overall a draw was a fair result to a fine contest. Team: Shane Nolan, Kevin Johnson, Willie Eviston, Paddy Moynihan, Dara Butler, Aidan McGrath, Henry Maher, Liam Treacy 0-02, Eamon Connolly, John Meagher 0-01, Noel McGrath 0-01l, Pairic Egan, Liam McGrath, 1-11, Ciaran Kiely, Cian Hennessy 2-0.

O Riain Cup Final: On Sunday last at Semple Stadium our side were defeated 3-17 to 1-06 by Eire Og, Nenagh in Seamus o Riain Cup final.
With our request for a postponement, due to our senior football County final involvement on Sunday next, falling on dead ears, we were left with little choice and protect our chances of winning a football title. Contrary to our willingness to be at full strength and give every game our best shot we were forced on this occasion to field a second string team and despite a wholehearted performance from all the lads they had to bow to the much stronger north men, who it must be said were also seeking a deferral of the fixture. Our congratulations to Nenagh on their victory as we thank all our players for making themselves available to the management on the day. No doubt a full strength team by both clubs would have been a fine encounter for a magnificent trophy.
County Football Final: On Sunday next all roads lead to Semple Stadium for the County football final at 2.30pm (Note time change) v Aherlow. Having last won the title in 2004 and contested the final of 2005, our play has been generally good this year and we hope the lads will perform to the best of their ability and bring back the O’Dwyer cup to the club.
We ask for your strong support on Sunday and hope all households will display the colours during the lead up to the top day in County football.
Sympathy: Our sympathy to our former club treasurer Don Bolger on the passing of his brother recently. Also to Eamon Fanning on the passing of his brother John in England, and to all the families who have suffered bereavements recently R.I.P.
