Senior hurlers

The Senior hurlers delivered a magnificent display to defeat Adare in the County Championship semi-final.  The opening five minutes were extremely close as both sides scored two points apiece.  There was no indication of the storm that was to come.  Over the next ten minutes, Patrickswell rattled over seven points to establish a large 0-9 to 0-2 advantage.

Adare managed another point before Lar Considine and Tom O'Brien notched devastating goals in quick succession to make the score 2-10 to 0-3.  There were four additional points from Patrickswell as they reached the interval at 2-14 to 0-4 ahead.  The spectators were enthralled and stunned in equal measure.

Adare were competitive at the start of the second half as both sides exchanged two points apiece.  Unfortunately for our neighbours, the 'Well commenced another blitz that yielded seven unanswered points.  The scoreboard read 2-23 to 0-6 with five minutes remaining.  The final stages saw Adare adding two consolation points as Patrickswell triumphed by 2-24 to 0-8.

Sunday October 11 is the County Final against Na Piarsaigh at the Gaelic Grounds and the club's first senior county final in almost a decade.  Best wishes to the players and management.  You've earned your big chance.
