Team C triumph in Collooney handball 40 x  29 tournament final

Team C of Joe Mc Cann, Pat Fox, Michael Browne, Aoife Quinn, Michael Murphy & Liam Naughton deft Team G of Michael Ginley, Mark Murphy, Pat O'Sullivan, Martin Golden, Cannon Cannon & Martin Brannigan by 123-104 in the final of the  Collooney handball 40 x 20 team tournament. The competition has been running for the past 8 weeks.  In an entertaining and close final throughout it was the overall gritty team display of Team C that eventually wore down game Team G. Despite losing the opening contest Pat Fox & Joe McCann (Team G) they can thank their team mates for pulling this one out of the fire.
