U16B County Champions

Sunday 5th October saw the final of the U18B played between Lismore and Ferrybank in Fraher field. Ferrybank won last year's U18 'B' championship are were hoping to retain their title. Lismore on the other hand were hoping to add another county title to their club's haul this year having already won the Senior and U16B championships. On this occasion it was the West Waterford team that triumphed to add the title to their clubs list of accomplishments this year.

Munster Junior Club Championship

After winning the 2014 Intermediate title this year, Cappoquin's next opponent were Clanmaurice from Kerry on Saturday 4th October. With a home draw, Cappoquin were hoping to win and progress in the Munster Club competition. At halftime, Cappoquin were trailing by 5 points on a score of Cappoquin 2-03 to Clanmaurice's 3-05. Although reducing the deficit in the second half, Cappoquin could not get back into the game eventually losing on a score of Cappoquin 2-06 to Clanmaurice 3-06. Although beaten in this match, the Cappoquin have a lot to celebrate this year and will surely be competitive when they play Senior next year.
