Membership is now well over due. It is vital that all adult and juveniles pay their membership or they are not covered if injured. If no effort is made to pay then they will be unable to train or play. Contact the team coaches for membership details.

A massive thanks to Gaelic Plant Hire for once again coming on board as the main sponsor of the juvenile section of the club. Thanks to Keith, Noel and team for their continued support.

 

We have got our new fence finished on the clubhouse side of the pitch. We'd like to thank every member, supporter, lotto ticket sellers, lotto ticket buyer and anyone who has supported the club in anyway because without your help none of this would be possible.

The under 9s had another monster blitz in Ballinakill on Saturday which was a great success. The u10 boys had a great victory away to Tinahely while the junior B team kept up their 100% record in the league beating Newcastle 2-12 to 0-9. Hard luck to the seniors who lost the league semi final 0-9 to 0-8 against St. Pats. Hard luck to JT, Sam, Ciaran the county u20s who lost to Wexford in the Leinster championship on Saturday. The u16 girls had a great win at home to Newtown 8-7 to 2-12 while the u12s had their first match in division 1 unfortunately losing out Tinahely but a fantastic effort from the girls to be playing in division 1. Fixtures this week are u11 red away to An Tochar and green home to Bray both on Wednesday at 7 while the u15s play Eire Og in Ballinakill also on Wednesday at 7.15. The junior B team are away to Kilcoole on Friday at 8. The minors are away to Baltinglass on Monday at 7.30.
