UNDER 14 HURLERS:
We played Adare in u14 Hurling challenge match. Both clubs were missing players and while we had a full team, Adare were short players so we played 13 a side. This was a good opportunity for us to give valuable game time to all available squad members. We were well in control of this game from an early stage and were comfortable winners.
Team: Rory Hannon, Fergal Egan, Padraig Byrnes, Dara Nash, Cian Enright, John Bourke, Colin Haigney, Cathal O’Neill, Brendan Power, Colin Coughlan, Sam Riordan, Ciaran Kennedy, Niall Khan, Paul Mullins, John O’Donnell, Rian O’Byrne.
Since then our under 14 hurlers had a great win over Na Piarsaigh and the footballers beat Bruff.
CONGRATULATIONS:
Congrats to the Limerick under 21 hurling team who beat Tipperary by 3-16 to 3-14 in the Munster semi final last week and will now play Clare in the final on Thursday 30th July in Cusack Park in Ennis.
