Cappoquin Camogie Club Notes

April 22, 2014
Membership
Membership for all players is now due. €25 for u18/Youth, €35 for over 18/Adult & €50 for family membership (a child over 18 is not covered by family membership, adult membership fees apply for over 18s). These fees are subject to a levy by the County Board which has not yet been decided. Membership can be given to Maria Uniacke (u8/u10), Linda Foley (u12/u14) & Tricia McCarthy (u16/u18/Adult). We would again like to clarify that no player is registered without membership.
U14
Butlerstown made the long trip down to Cappoquin last Tuesday to take on our Under 14's in the first round of the Division C League. It was a fantastic evening for camogie but unfortunately Butlerstown, who only recently made the drop down from Division B, proved to be just a bit too strong for our girls. With the wind behind them in the first half they scored 5 goals without reply from Cappoquin. The second half proved to be a much more exciting affair. With a few tactical switches at half time the girls decided to dig deep and go for broke. They got stuck in and proved themselves to be worthy opponents for Butlerstown, but with 2 more goals towards the end of the game Butlerstown ran out as winners on a score line of 7 goals to no score. Our next game is away to An Rinn on Tuesday 29th April at 6:30pm.

Intermediate
The intermediate ladies have started their campaign for the 2014 Senior League/Plate. We have two matches under our belts so far. The girls faced a fiery Portlaw side in the first round of the league on a wet and blustery day in the Portlaw GAA grounds. Unfortunately, luck was not on our side result wise that day but both players and management were given the opportunity to gain insight into what lies on the road ahead for the team this year in terms of both fitness and skill. We took on the strong and experience Lismore side in the second round of the league on our own turf in the Cappoquin GAA pitch. Although we did not have our full strength team lining out that day, management were very impressed with how the girls' fitness had improved in such a short amount of time - it probably has something to do with Duck & Co. running the legs off of us at training! Lismore were the stronger side on the day, I won't print the score.. Praise has to be given to the younger girls who are making their debut to the senior league this year who are putting in a lot of effort. We will be taking on Butlerstown in the next round of the Senior League, time and date TBC. Training this Thursday at 7.30pm sharp. Don't forget to bring your €2 contribution and the €22 for the skort.
