Under 13 Our u13s had tough two games this week, facing St. Finbarrs in football on Thurs night last, which started very well for us in the first half, but the Barrs came out a different team in the second half and contested very strongly to put us under pressure. However, the lads showed great heart and overcame their opponents with a final score line 5-10 to 4-5. Our 2nd game was hurling against Killeagh yesterday, which was very hard-fought. We were down 3-4 to 3 points at half time, but we came back to draw the game at the final whistle with a score of 5-6 to 4-9. From all of our mentors & panel we would like to congratulate our u21s great success in their county final win and hope that we can achieve the same in years to come.
