Under 10’s:
Our under 10 boys had a great evening in Fossa last Tuesday where they enjoyed playing some fantastic football in the glorious sunshine.
Special thanks to Fossa GAA for having the boys and to Garry, John and James for all their work. It was also very encouraging to see the many parents/guardians who travelled along to support the young boys.

Both of our under 12 boys were very unlucky against Fossa on Sunday evening last-despite some excellent scoring by the.
The A team lost on a score line of 3: 8 to 2 8 and the B’s lost 5:13 to 5 9. Well done to you all for a fine sporting effort and thanks to all your coaches for their commitment to training and games.
