All our teams have been very competitive this year, our U12s narrowly losing the Championship Final, our U14s winning the Championship Shield, our U16s reached their first ever Championship Final and our Minors will take to the field for the first time. The addition of both U6 and U18 have been very positive developments as nearly all ages are now catered for in our club. Here are but a few pictures from a great years hurling. We look forward with confidence to 2016 and even more success on the field. Happy New Year.
