Patrickswell GAA Club Notes

July 24, 2017

SENIOR HURLERS:

The Senior Hurling County Championship match with Monaleen has been fixed for Sunday July 30 at 5.15pm in the Gaelic Grounds.  Please support this big match for the club.


JUNIOR A HURLERS:

The Junior A hurlers maintained their impressive 100% record in the City Championship after notching a fourth consecutive victory.  Patrickswell and Old Christians were equally matched in the opening exchanges, but our greater accuracy built a 0-6 to 0-4 lead within fifteen minutes.  Peter Harty's goal established a five-point buffer at 1-6 to 0-4; however Old Christians closed the first half in the ascendency.  Their surge narrowed the Patrickswell lead to the minimum of 1-8 to 0-10 at half-time.

The second half started slowly, with points and chances at a premium.  Peter Harty's second goal seemed to turn the match decisively in the Well's favour at 2-10 to 0-11.  Two additional points were secured to put Patrickswell seven points ahead with only ten minutes left on the clock.  To their credit, Old Christians poured forward in a bid to close the gap.  Their ambitions were rewarded with a late goal that created some late tension.  Thankfully, Patrickswell stood firm and won the match by 2-14 to 1-13.

Our next match is scheduled for Saturday July 29 at 7pm against Monaleen at Claughaun.
