Hard luck to the intermediate team who lost to Baltinglass in the league on Saturday afternoon. The  junior B team got the league campaign off to a winning start against Newtown on Thursday. The under 11 green team had a great win over St. Pats while the under 15 team ended up playing a friendly against Eire Og as no referee turned up both on last Wednesday. Fixtures ahead for the week start with the junior B's home to An Tochar and the under 13's away to Shillelagh/coolboy and the under 16 girls home to Eire og all on Thursday evening. The intermediates are home to Laragh on Saturday at 4pm while the senior team are also home on Sunday morning to Baltinglass at 11. 

 

All in the club send its condolences to the family of Carmel Culbert who sadly passed away last week. A great supporter of the club who will be missed by all in the village. May she rest in peace.

Congratulations to Colm and Bridget Franey on the birth of their baby daughter Saoirse.
