Under 7/9/11;
Great start to the new year of hurling! Our U7s had the privilege of starting us off with the first round of blitzes in Dundalk on Sunday last. Some great hurling with some of our lads playing their very first games for us. Five good games v Blackrock, Knockbridge, Clonduff, Newry and Ballyvarney. Getting games against Louth, Armagh and Down clubs will only bring our lads on even more. Special thanks to our player’s parents for making the long drive over. Without your support these games don’t happen. Thank you. Next week it’s the turn of the U9s with the U11s the following week.
Training returns this coming week. Thursday in Kingscourt Community Centre from 7-8pm and Friday in Bailieborough Community School Sports Hall. U7/9 from 6-7pm and U11 from 7-8pm. New players very welcome from the entire region.
