Club Notes – 1st October, 2017

U16 B Hurling Final

Shamrocks 2-13
Drumcullen/Seir Kieran 1-7
We had to concede defeat to a strong and skilful Shamrocks team in Banagher on Saturday morning. The team probably played below previous form and this is disappointing but the players and management should be proud of the enjoyment they provided during the year. We thank them for that and have no doubt their skill and commitment will bring greater rewards in the future.

Junior Camogie Final

Congratulations to the Lusmagh/Drumcullen camogie team on their success in the final on Saturday last in what was a very enjoyable game.

County Finals

Well done to Kieran Dooley and his team on their performance in officiating at the Intermediate final on Sunday. Congratulations to Ballinamere on their victory in that game and to Kilcormac/Killoughey on winning the 2017 Senior Hurling Championship. We wish them and all other Offaly teams the best of luck in their Leinster campaigns.

Faithful Fields

Well done to Offaly County Board and to all associated with this magnificent project. It is a truly remarkable achievement and will no doubt contribute to the sense of pride our players will have in driving Offaly forward to success in the future.

U8/10/12

Many thanks to Feenagh/Kilmeedy (Limerick) for the great reception and hospitality on our trip there on Saturday last. The children had a most enjoyable time and we are grateful also to the coaches and many parents who travelled either on the bus or by their own steam.
