Round 4 will be on in 2 weeks time

Juniors

Our Junior girls welcomed Portroe to Gortnahoe on Friday night but were unfortunate to lose on the night, training continues with great numbers.

Our U14 girls had a great win on Friday evening in Cashel following on from a great win in Carrick on Suir the week before. Our next game is on Thursday evening 21st April away to St Rita’s in Fethard

Under 15s

U15 Feile – the girls took part in Feile on Easter Monday with an early start and our first match at 10.00a.m. against an extremely strong Slieve Phelim team where we took a bad beating, our second game was against St Pat’s from Drangan in a much more evenly matched game and we were unfortunate not to draw or even win and this was quickly followed by our third game against Cahir which again was very evenly matched and competitive and we barely lost. We had a very young team as most girls were only 13 years of age and this was an U15 competition and Slieve Phelim went on to win the Division C final later in the day in Dr Morris Park. All bar one of the girls will be eligible to play at U15 level again next year so they will have learned a lot from their first Feile and hopefully we can expect great things next year.

Training continues for U8s and U10s with great numbers in attendance.
