Senior Men – Our Division 2 team played away to Listowel Emmets on Saturday. The home team won on a score line of 2 goals and 10 points to 9 points.
Thanks to all who travelled to the game. Their support is much appreciated. Wishing all of the players and management the best as we head into the second half of the league.
Our division 6 team did not play this weekend. Please see social media during the week to confirm times and dates of our next fixtures.
Senior Ladies – Our Senior ladies played Listowel Emmets on Friday night in Rd 5 of the Donal Curtin Cup. A number of forced changes in personnel saw a lot of positional changes from our Rd 4 game.
Emmets opened brightly and went 4 points up before a pointed free opened our account. Both teams worked hard and at the short whistle we were 0-5 to 1-6 down, We started well in Qtr 3 and brought the game back level and in fact 2 good saves from Emmets goalie denied us the lead.
A turnover to Emmets let them in for a goal and despite our trojan effort to the final whistle we were unable to narrow the gap. Well done to all and the players who gave 100 % to the final whistle. Our next game is Fossa away on 12th May followed by a back game with Glenflesk (Details TBC)
