Adult Championships
With Waterford Intermediate teams break between the Liberty Insurance All Ireland Championships league phase and their All Ireland semi-final on August 16th against Limerick, the action has switched to Waterford Club action.

Senior Championship
The second round of this years championship was played this past weekend. The matches up for decision this week were Lismore hosting St. Anne's and Gailltir hosting Butlerstown. The Lismore match against St. Anne's was a repeat of the 2013 Senior Championship final and saw a considerable number of Waterford's Intermediate team face each other as opponents. St. Anne's had such Waterford players as Becky Kavanagh, Pauline Cunningham, Claire Whyte, Mairead Murphy, Charlotte Raher, Karen Kelly, Niamh Rockett and Sinead Cummins. Lismore have their own Waterford players such as Shona Curran, Nicola Morrissey, Shauna Prendergast, Shauna Kiernan and Ruth Geoghegan on their team. Only two points separated the teams at halftime with Lismore edging the 1-05 to 1-03 scoreline but Lismore pulled away in the second half to be eventual winners of 2-14 to St. Anne's 1-09. Some of Lismore scorers were Aoife Hannon (1-08), Ruth Geoghegan (1-0) and Caithriona McGlone (0-03) while St. Anne's relied on scores from placed balls when Karen Kelly converted seven frees.
Butlerstown conceded a walkover to Gailltir in the other match.
The next round of the Senior championships matches sees Lismore host Butlerstown while St. Anne's host Gailltir and are scheduled to be played on Sunday 3rd August.

Intermediate Championship
The second round match saw Portlaw host Cappoquin and Brickey Rangers host An Rinn. An Rinn followed up their win against newly promoted Portlaw from last week with another win against Brickey Rangers. Cappoquin won their match against Portlaw which means that both An Rinn and Cappoquin are joint top of the table which means that next weeks match between Cappoquin and An Rinn will surely decide which team will top the table and be placed straight into the final while the loser will be destined for the semi-final play-off. The other match sees Brickey Rangers host Portlaw and the winner of this will also reach the semi-final play-off as third placed team.

​Junior Championship
The second round of matches saw Roanmore host Lismore and Ferrybank host Tallow. Lismore won their previous encounter against Tallow last week and travelled to Roanmore to hopefully continue the run. The Roanmore team had been beaten in the previous round by Ferrybank and were hoping to get a result from the game. In a tight game were both sides had scoring chances the result ended up a draw. The other match saw Ferrybank continue their winning ways when they won the encounter against Tallow. Next weeks matches sees Lismore host Ferrybank and Tallow host Roanmore with results determining final table positions. Ferrybank are top of the table at the present but Lismore can overtake then if they win the game . Tallow can still make the semi-final spot at the expense of Roanmore if they win the match so no team in this section can afford any slip-ups.

U16 Championship Round-up
Now that we have completed three rounds of the U16 Championships the positions that teams occupy is becoming clearer.
Section A
The clash of the two top teams occurred earlier this week when Gailltir travelled into De la Salle for the encounter. In a match that will surely go a lot way to determining which of these two teams that will top the table at the end of the league phase it was the city side that prevailed in the end. Cappoquin recovered from their previous rounds result against Gailltir to beat St. Anne's in a high scoring match and the final match in this section saw Brickey Rangers beat Dungarvan. At this moment it looks like De la Salle will top the group but all other teams are in with a chance to reach the semi-final play-off. The next round of matches are scheduled to be played on August 5th and sees Cappoquin host De la Salle, St. Anne's host Dungarvan and Brickey Rangers host Gailltir.
Section B
Both Lismore and An Rinn sit in joint first position at the moment as Lismore beat Clonea/Portlaw and An Rinn beat Ferrybank. Tramore had a bye this week so they will be eager to get back to playing and will face a test against the unbeaten An Rinn. Lismore will host Ferrybank with Clonea/Portlaw having the bye.
Section C
The only fixture fulfilled in this section was Modeligo against St. Mollerans. Modeligo followed up their first round win with another win in a tight encounter against St. Mollerans to move them clear at the top of the table with maximum points. Although suffering a defeat this week, St. Molleran's share second spot with Tallow who had a bye this week. The Abbeyside and Ronamore match was rescheduled. Next round match sees Abbeyside host St. Molleran's while Tallow face Modeligo.
