It was all about our fantastic underage players last weekend. Huge congratulations to Jamie Moran, Fergus O'Sullivan and Daire Daily who played in the All Britain Feile for South London in Birmingham last weekend. The U10 Footballers had a fantastic day out at the North London Shamrocks Blitz where they won all their games and the U17s played a League game against Taras where they fought back from a poor start to almost come out with the win. It is great to see such brilliant future talent emerging through the club. 

On Sunday the Camogs continued their Championship campaign with a strong win against Fr Murphys. 

The Ladies Footballers were unfortunate to lose both their matches over the last week to strong opposition in the form of Parnells and Round Towers.

Training continues this week for all teams as usual.

Our Hurlers and Reserve Footballers are in League action on Tuesday evening. The Hurlers host Brothers Pearse in Goodmayes while the Reserve Footballers travel to Downhills Park to play Éire Óg.

Next Saturday is a busy one for the club. The Camogs travel to Birmingham where they take on Liverpool Wolfe Tones in a crucial Championship match. Meanwhile in Greenford the Mens Footballers play Cú Chulainns in the League and the Reserve Footballers are up against St Josephs. On Sunday morning the U17 Footballers are up against St Kiernans in the League also in Greenford.

History & Centenary
