Congratulations to our senior 6 camogie team on their great win over Setanta in the championship. This is is a fantastic group of very dedicated players and are well deserving of their victory. The team is managed by Tom O’Sullivan, Colm Delaney, Lisa Kiernan, Joan O’Connor and Carol O’Sullivan

Well done to our senior footballers who had an impressive win over St. Mary’s to guarantee a home semi final in the playoffs.

Our junior hurlers are still in contention for promotion despite losing the final league game to Cuala by 4 points. We will have to go the slightly more “scenic route” now.

Our AGM takes place on Thursday the 24th of November at 8pm in the clubhouse. Nominations and motions must be submitted to the club secretary by the 4th of November.

Johnny’s main role is to assist club members who may be experiencing difficulties with their mental or physical health. His role will be to help those in need to access the most appropriate services or support.
