Club Notes -23rd September 2019

Senior ‘B’ Hurling Championship Qtr Final

Carrig & Riverstown 4-12

Drumcullen 1-13

A late goal was no consolation as we suffered a heavy defeat in a most disappointing performance. Nothing went right on the day although there was no lack of preparation and commitment.  We appreciate the efforts  of players and management during the year. (See report elsewhere)

Underage results.

It was a mixed bag during the week when the Seir Kieran/Drumcullen Minor Hurlers lost heavily to Kilcormac/Killoughey by 7.15 to 2-9 having trailed  2-7 to 2-6 at the break. They now enter the shield competition. Drumcullen/Seir Kieran U13’s had a great win in the Shield semi-final when defeating CRC Gaels by 6-14 to 4-8 and now go on to the final in the Faithful Fields on Sunday morning at 12.15. Our U15’s went down 2-20 to 1-5 to a very strong Ferbane /Belmont team in the preliminary quarter and now enter the shield semi-final.

Craughwell U12 Tournament

Drumcullen’s U12’s travelled to Galway on Sunday morning and having defeated the hosts, James Cusacks  and Oranmore/Maree they conceded defeat to a very good and huge (size wise) Ballinasloe team By 1-8 to 0-5. in the final. Fatigue may have been a factor as they entertained Roscrea on Saturday in which Kieran Coughlan sustained a broken finger. We wish him a speedy recovery.
