Patrickswell GAA Club notes

Strictly Come Dancing

 

The Strictly Come Dancing extravaganza finally arrived in town, following months of preparation.  The event did not disappoint.  The Limerick Racecourse venue was packed to capacity as the thirteen pairs delivered a great night of entertainment.  When all the votes had been counted, Mike Shinnors and Louise Foley were crowned as the popular winners.

 

Many thanks to everyone who helped make this event a great success for the club and community - the dancers, the organising committee, the photographers, ticket sellers, the stewards, the judges, the Racecourse staff, etc.  The list is endless, but you know who you are!

 

Senior hurlers

The Senior hurlers recorded a fine 2-17 to 0-15 victory over Kilmallock in the All County Hurling League.  The first half was dominated by Patrickswell as they controlled possession and profited from their scoring chances.  Kevin O'Brien hit the net within five minutes and set the tone for the remainder of the half.  While Kilmallock were constrained to four points, the 'Well plundered ten points of their own from various positions.  The half-time score was 1-10 to 0-4.

The second half was a more competitive affair.  Kilmallock bagged six points without reply and trimmed the significant lead to just three points.  A point from Andrew Carroll stopped the onslaught.  For the subsequent ten minutes, the teams traded four points apiece to leave the score at 1-15 to 0-14.  Kilmallock were still in contention until Andrew Carroll scored Patrickswell's second goal and the home side closed out the game as 2-17 to 0-15 winners.
