Our U10’s return outdoors to Kilmanagh Saturday 28th March having completed four weeks indoor training in Wallslough. The boys showed little rustiness as they worked on the basic skills and speed during the four weeks. We look forward to a successful year ahead with plenty of training/matches being organised over the coming months. Well done to our clubmen Billy Ryan and Eamonn Egan who were part of St Kieran’s College victorious team in the semi final of the Senior Colleges hurling against Athenry Presentation on Saturday 21st March. St. Kieran’s will now play in the final against Thurles CBS on Saturday 4th April at 5pm in Semple Stadium. Best of luck to the 2 lads and St Kieran’s in the final.
