Feile: Sincere thanks are extended to all who made the Feile such a memorable occasion last weekend. Shamrocks beat Four Roads Roscommon, drew with Lixnaw (Kerry) and lost out to the eventual division 3 champions Tinnahinch (Laois) in the last group game where victory would have sent Shamrocks through to the semi final. The players gave it everything and with a little bit of luck they would have been in the running for winning out the division 3 title. After the games on Saturday both Shamrocks and Four Roads panels went bowling and followed that up with a trip to O Connor Park to see Kilkenny defeat Galway in a thrilling game. Well done to everyone concerned including Team Management, the grounds people, everyone who helped out with signs, banners, BBQ, shop, teas, sandwiches, umpires, linesmen, Hosts, parents, and players from both senior and minor levels and anyone else who helped out in whatever way they could. Without everyone's help the weekend would not have been the huge success which it ultimately proved to be.
