Under 14 Hurlers
The U14 hurlers got their Féile na nGael campaign off to a winning start defeating Kilmallock 4 - 8 to 1 - 2. Playing into the wind in the opening half, the groundwork was made when we led at the break 2 - 4 to 1 - 1.
Captain James Daly and David O'Byrne scored 1 -1 a piece with David Ryan and Adam McNamara chipping in with points in a half where the side exhibited some lovely passing movements.
Despite being wind assisted in the second half, we found it hard to break down the Kilmallock defence and it took two late goals from David O'Byrne to secure his hat trick to seal a semi-final spot where we will meet Garryspillane next Sunday.

Intermediate Footballers

Our intermediate Footballers were in City Senior Football Final action on Friday night when they travelled across town to Rhebogue to take on St Patricks.
Playing against the wind in the first half we struggled to contain the St Pats forwards and found ourselves conceding needless frees which were duly converted.
Our attack receiving limited possession we nevertheless wasteful and only registered a single score in the the first half coming from the boot of Niall Earls from a placed ball.
The introduction of Kevin Downes gave us more power around the middle third and his direct running caused problems for our opponents.
Eoghan Kehilly, Dean McLoughlin and Pat Gleeson showing well in the half along with Ciaran Ryan and Evan Egan but the scores we not forthcoming.
We trailed at the break 0-09 to 0-01.
We were much improved in the second half and a surging run following a neat passing move led to a penalty which was cooly dispatched by Aaron Costelloe.
Innaccuracy and a lack of discipline proving our downfall overall with St Pats scoring 9 points of the 13 tally from frees.
There were many positives to take from the performance and no doubt bainisteoir Pat McHugh will be working hard to rectify some of the faults prior to the championship.

Team: Brendan Donnelly, Pat Gleeson, Kevin Nolan, Dean McLoughlin, Peter Hodnett, Eoghan Kehilly, Mike Roberts, Ciaran Ryan, Niall Earls(0-1), Evan Egan, Cian Coady, Noel Shannon, Alan Dempsey, Aaron Costelloe(1-2f), Evan Condon. Subs/: Eoin Hogan(0-1), Kevin Downes, Shane O Connor, David Lambe,

Under 21 Hurlers:

Our under 21 hurlers qualified for another final on Sunday evening when they overcame a resolute Doon team.
Played in Bruff in good conditions we began sluggishly and found ourselves five points to two down after 15 minutes.
A powerful run through the middle by David Dempsey caused havoc and led to a 21 yard free which Shane Dowling rifled to the net.
This gave the team fresh impetus and we drove on to finish the half strongly.
We began the second half like a train and some great team scores had us seven points to the good.
A great overall team performance in a tough tough battle where a great determination and will to win was in evidence.
We now look forward to a repeat of last years final against Patrickswell in two weeks.
