We are hosting an u10 blitz this Saturday at 11:15 with St. Joseph's and Corofin. Despite a 4 point lead into the 2nd half, our intermediates eventually lost out to Corofin after a goal from a free for Corofin proved a turning point in the game in Éire Óg last night. The game ended 0.09 to 3.05 in favour of the visitors. The team will travel to take on a highly rated Whitegate in two weeks time in the final round of group games. Our U16 team host Corofin tonight at 7pm. On Sunday our minors travel to Shannon to play Wolfe Tones at 6.30pm and on Wednesday they host Corofin at 7pm.

Well done to all of our Academy players who have been representing the club on the various underage county development squads in both hurling and football at U14, U15 and U16 during the year.
