East Cavan Gaels GAA Club – Hurling News 14th November 2016
Under 6/8/10; Training returned indoors on Thursday last in Kingscourt Community Centre. Friday’s foul weather conditions made it unsafe to travel for our Bailieborough training group so they will get going this coming Friday. New players very welcome.

Under 12/14; The U13 competition will begin this Friday 18th November on the 3G. Two rounds with the finals on 2nd December.
Under 16/18; Under 16 Championship final.
Cootehill 6-07
East Cavan Gaels 2-06
Definitely a case of what might have been on Wednesday in Breffni. An excellent display by our lads who are a mixture of only 4 16 year olds with a sprinkling of 13/14 year old lads. A very nasty head injury to Cillian Traynor coupled with the 2 goals that followed while a man down was ultimately our undoing on the night. Our defence while under some serious pressure delivered a serious performance led by Cian. The midfield area grabbed a good foothold in the game with Jack, Cillian, Seamus and Kevin putting in a serious shift to lay the platform. Unfortunately we are still very young in the forward department and the older physical presence of the Cootehill lads kept most of our attacks at bay but we still created a load of chances.
Cillian’s injury made the second half that bit more difficult but credit to our lads for sticking with Cootehill where they scored 3-04 to our 2-04. We are getting closer each year. Well done to all.
