Adult Games
This week saw our two Adult hurling teams back in action. Our Seniors were comprehensively beaten by Castleknock last Wednesday night but the lads bounced back with a good win over St. Kevins on Sunday morning. The lads will be out again v Setanta in two weeks time. Our Junior Hurlers picked up another victory last Thursday night v Whitehall. The result keeping us well in the mix for promotion.
RUBYS: Sponsors of our Senior Hurlers
Our Adult Camogie 1 Team played Good Counsel in their League Final. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be losing out on a score of Fins 0-11 to 5-05. It's onwards and upwards now for the girls with Championship starting on the 16th August.
Reade Pensions & Financial Services Sponsors
