PREMIER INTERMEDIATE HURLING: We were defeated by Carrick Swans in the first round of the county championship last weekend.

We now re-focus for the second group game against Silvermines on the weekend of Aug 10th.

Ladies football: The ladies team played Templemore in round 2 of the championship on Thursday evening and playing into a very strong breeze and with some of our panel involved with Tipp Camogie, we found it hard to get out of our own half during the first 30 minutes.

Every single player tried their very best against a Templemore squad which was close to full strength.
