U9 Hurling

Our Under 9s took part in the last County Hurling blitz of the season in Austin Stack Park on Saturday.  The boys had a few great games against Abbeydorney, Crotta and Ballyheigue. The coaches went home very proud of everyone of the players showing some great skills and determination. Training takes place on Tuesday evening weather permitting and our awards night is on Friday night in CBS national school hall. The managers would like to thank all the parents for their commitment also the coaches and parents that helped out throughout the year.

 

U10 Camogie

Well done to our U10 girls who competed in the last U10 blitz of the season at the weekend. They played very well and worked hard for each other and deserved their success in the blitz. Keep up the practice at home, girls.

 

U11 Hurling

Our U-11s had an immensely enjoyable trip to Clonlara, County Clare at the weekend where they participated in the excellently hosted Jack Moriarty tournament. A big thank you to the hosts for their hospitality and a shout out to Clare stars Ian Galvin and John Conlan for taking their time with the lads. This marks the end of a brilliant year for this group of players who now get a well earned break.

Junior Hurling 

Our Junior hurlers were beaten in the South Kerry League final on Saturday evening away to Dr Crokes after extra time on a score of 2-18 1-18.  The boys were unlucky not to get the result they deserved.
