Minor Hurling Championship

Drumcullen/Seir Kieran 0-10, Coolderry 1-12

This was an entertaining game played at Rath on Friday last. A wholehearted performance by the home team established a half-time lead of 0-9 to 0-5 and midway through the second half the lead held firm at 0-10 to 0-6. There followed a power failure which saw Coolderry take control following a well worked goal and they went on to dominate the remainder of the game. Despite this setback the team should look forward with confidence to the remainder of the championship and we wish them well.

Under 16 Hurling Championship

Seir Kieran/ Drumcullen 4-13; Cuchulainn Gaels 2-14

This game played in Clareen on Sunday evening in perfect conditions ebbed and flowed during an enjoyable first half before SKD took control and while the visitors responded bravely the result was never in doubt.

Golf Classic

Our annual golf classic will take place again this year at Birr golf club on 22nd July. Anyone interested in entering a team or offering sponsorship should contact Dermot Horan or Toni Ryan. This has proven to be a most enjoyable and well organised event and hopefully this year will be no different.

Leinster Hurling Championship

Well done to Offaly’s Under 21 hurlers on their victory in Carlow on Thursday last and we wish them well in the final against Dublin on 6th July in Tullamore. We also wish our senior hurlers the best of luck on their trip to Wexford on Saturday next. These teams are deserving of our support.
