Seniors: Last week turned out to be a great one for our senior side. With a hard fought victory over Aughnamullen in tough conditions, the boys reached the semi final of the championship. This is the first time we have been in a championship semi final since 2004 and this achievement gives the team a timely boost. Well done to players and management. Senior training continues Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Well done to manager Declan McNally, his mentors and the entire panel.
