NEXT FRIDAY!!

O'Loughlin Gaels GAA Club Race Night and Club Draw takes place on Friday. One €10 ticket will get you admission to Kilkenny Dog Track as well as your own race card for the night plus the chance to win some great prizes including a holiday in Spain with €750 spending money. (Nothing spared at O'Loughlin Gaels GAA)
The first race is at 8:00 and if the weather is anything like last year; there promises to be another bumper crowd at Kilkenny Race Track. Ticket sellers are out and about visiting every house in the Parish and young players too are doing their bit for the cause. So please support your Club..Remember – the monies collected will go towards the day to day running of what is a very large sporting operation in your community. Whether it be the training and kitting out of juveniles for the Continent or preparing our seniors for a run in this year’s League & Championship – the costs are prohibitive and so, we need your help. Please answer the call by looking out for our ticket sellers as they go door to door over the coming evenings and be at Kilkenny Race Track on July the 13th. Keep an eye to the clubs social media pages also for the much sought after Doc’s Tips.

All County Jnr Hurling Final: 
O'Loughlin Gaels 2-20 to 1:17 Piltown 
Goals from Evan Walsh and Ferghal Brennan proved decisive in this win at Thomastown. Ferghal Brennans strike 10mins from time after a well worked move finally allowed the Gaels to settle and finish out 6 point winners and collect this trophy for the first time in 4 years. With such a strong panel available there were plenty of options available to management ultimately rewarding Conor Bergin the honour of accepting the trophy from competition sponsor Paul Kavanagh of JJ Kavanagh & Sons.

Well done all.

Result: J.J. Kavanagh & Sons All County Jnr Hurling Final: 
O'Loughlin Gaels 2-20 to 1:17 Piltown
 
Result: J. J. Kavanagh and Sons Junior B Hurling League
St Martins 2:17 to 1:24 O'Loughlin Gaels. 
Well done to the junior B team after a good win in Coon against a previously undefeated St. Martin's. A good physical game this was a good test of the lads metal that saw them get a hold of the game in the final quarter and finish out 4 point winners. Well done all.
 
Result: Permanent TSB Under 19 Hurling D Group D 
O'Loughlin Gaels 2-15 to 2-15 James Stephens. 
It was a fair auld tussle in the heat of St. John's Park this afternoon with both teams taking their turns to dominate. O'Loughlins had the better if the exchanges in the first 30mins and led at the break 1-11 to 0-8 but the visitors came out in the second have in blustering form and working up a 4 point lead at one point. However the Gaels returned another spell of good form managing to level the game by full time. Looking forward to the 2nd leg of this fixture to be scheduled in a week or two. Well done all
 
Result: u13 A Hurling League. 
Tullogher-Rosbercon 2-4 to 3-3 O'Loughlin Gaels 
Another great win for these young lads that was hard fought and were fully deserving of these league points. Goals from.Fionn Lawlor Eoghan O'Brien and Joe Bolger were added to with a brace of points from O'Brien and a fine pointed effort from.the wing by Orestas Balsys. The defensive effort by the back six supported by a strong mid field pairing was without doubt the winning of this game however. Well done boys...lovely hurling.


Result: u13 C League. 
Cloneen 1:10 to 2: 2 O'Loughlin Gaels 
A very disappointing result considering the effort put in tonight by this group of players. Goals from Conor Daly and Stephen Butler were rewards for their good work. The game was there for the taking and on another day more scores should have come. A great defensive effort was led by Joe Bolger who put in a second consecutive nights hurling for his club. Well done to Jack Johnson who showed his metal and along with s few others like Conor Murphy, Stephen Butler, Zac Evans who also showed that honest endeavour does get noticed. Keep working hard and even harder and good results will.come. Well done boys.
