The footballers had a comprehensive win over Eire Óg on Saturday afternoon to keep their Championship hopes alive. A cagy first half saw the sides go in level at the break but the Macs proved stronger in the second half and goals from Kevin O'Donohue and Paddy Halligan made sure of the result.

Best of luck to the London Ladies and the six McCurtains players who take on Limerick in the All Ireland Semi Final next weekend.  

Training continues as usual for the Footballers and Hurlers while the Ladies Footballers return to training after the summer break on Wednesday in West Ham at 7.00pm. There are no games for the club next weekend.

*Gentle reminder to all teams to take their rubbish with them after using Goodmayes pitches*

Saturday morning saw the Hurlers take part in the All Ireland Hurling 7s Tournament in St Judes, Dublin. After a difficult start, losing to the hosts and Tournafulla from Limerick, the lads shook off the cobwebs to beat JK Brackens of Tipperary and Burren Rangers from Carlow. These two wins saw them finish joint second in the group and qualify for the Shield Quarter Final against Antrims Robert Emmets, Cushendun. Unfortunately it wasn't to be as the lads battled hard but ultimately lost out by 4 points. Well done to all involved.
