Graigue Ballycallan 2-13 to 2-15 O’Loughlin Gaels
A good hard fought win against a very strong home side was just reward for a sterling effort by this group of players. The Gaels were always going to be up against it as Graigue top the table. With the Gaels finishing second however these sides will meet again in a week or so in a league final. Well done to all involved.
The u13s bowed out of the Lisdowney 7s at the qtr final stage when they were defested by eventual winners Clara. The boys did very well winning their first two games handsomely to compete in the prestigious cup competition. The boys train hard now over the next few weeks to get ready for their championships
