Adult games
A really big weekend for the hurlers as have reached the Division 4 Promotion Play off FInal. On Sunday morning we welcome Clontarf GAA to the Club for an 11am throw in. Support from one and all would be very welcome for this game!
On Sunday afternoon last the 2nd hurling team lost out in their play off semi final game v St Sylvesters. A slow start to this game for the lads who fell behind to their more keen opponents. An excellent second half wasn’t enough to catch Sylvesters but it did provide a strong finish to the season for all the lads. Well done to the team and management for reaching the play off stages of the league.
Keep an eye on Facebook / Twitter for updates on fixtures due to the current weather conditions.
Juveniles
Nursery / Naoinra
A great buzz in the Club on Saturday as the youngest members were put through the paces by the team of coaches with Aideen Naughton looking after activities. There was plenty of games, skills practice and fun to keep everyone warm and active.
Under 8s – 11s
The teams are continuing to train on Saturday now that the fixtures are complete for the year. Midweek training is on hold until early in the New Year. The Boys and Girls enjoyed their workout on Saturday and will be training again next weekend.
