GAA

U12 hurling 

We travelled to Roanmore on Tuesday evening last to play our U12 hurling league fixture. It was a very warm evening and our lads played an outstanding game against a strong opposition. This was Roanmore’s first team, so we were up against a strong Senior club. In the end the width of the crossbar cost us as the Sliotar came back out instead of going over to give us a draw or going under to give us a win. Final score was Ardmore 5-10 — Roanmore 6-08.

U14 hurling 

On Wednesday evening we travelled to Clashmore for our U14 hurling fixture. Another beautiful warm evening and a very good competitive game was played. The lead changed hands on a number of occasions and in the end a late goal by Clashmore caught us. The score was Ardmore 2-07 Clashmore 3-07

Back to football this week and we are away to Cappoquinn/Affane

Camogie Notes

Under 12

Our U12 team took on Ballyduff Lower last Thursday at home. We had a hard fought battle against a very strong side but we came out very deserving winners in the end. They will play Ballyduff Upper next on the 2nd June in Ballyduff Upper.

Under 14

The U14 girls gave a good account of themselves on Tuesday evening but ultimately succumbed to a strong Mount Sion team. Next up is an away game v Clonea on June 4th

Our Club Meitheal took place on Saturday, we had a wonderful turnout at the clubhouse, and the work completed on the day was phenomenal. Young and Old all showed up ready and eager to Work.
