Ardmore Juvenile GAA Weekly Round-Up
Minor Hurling
Ardmore 4.15 Tramore 3.12
Ardmore minor hurlers had their first game and win against a tough Tramore team on Wednesday evening. We got a great start and led 1.02 to no score after 10 minutes, with the goal scored by Paudie Foley. However, a lot of bad wides and good scores from Tramore brought them right back into the game and it was 1.03 to 5pts after 20mins. Ardmore picked up again before half time and scored another 1.03 with the goal scored by Matthew Veale. Half time Ardmore led 2.06 to 6 points. In the 2nd half Tramore came right back into it and were only one point behind us with 15mins gone in the half. Thankfully we picked it up for the remainder of the game and scored another 2 goals from Paudie Foley and a cracker from John O'Brien. We finally ran out winners on a scoreline of 4.15 to 3.12. Special mention for Harry Roche Perks who had a great game from start to finish playing at full back.

Camogie Corner
Under 12
Our U12 team took on St. Annes last Tuesday in their semi final on a glorious sunny evening in Ardmore. The girls came out all guns blazing in the first half racking up some great scores. This gave us a strong lead heading into the second half allowing all the girls to get game time. We finished out the match worthy winners at the final whistle.
Under 16
Our U16s hosted Mount Sion last Thursday in a very tough encounter in their league. The city side played some fantastic camogie but unfortunately we lacked the intensity we have shown in previous matches. We missed some valuable scoring opportunities which proved to be detrimental at the final whistle. The game finished up with the visitors claiming the win Mount Sion 6.4 Ardmore 4.3. I’ve no doubt the girls will learn from this and come out even stronger in their game.

Our Memorial Garden – Growing with Love and Purpose
Since its planting on March 15th, our Memorial Garden has truly come to life — a peaceful and thriving space dedicated to the memory of former GAA club members and their families.
What began as a heartfelt project has blossomed into a living tribute — a place of reflection, remembrance, and renewal. With every bloom and buzzing bee, the garden reminds us that life continues to grow from love and community spirit.
We’re proud to say that the garden is not only beautiful, but also biodiverse and pollinator-friendly, carefully designed to support our local ecosystem. From native wildflowers to flowering shrubs, it’s become a haven for bees, butterflies, and other vital pollinators.
Thanks to the care of our volunteers and the support of our community, the garden is thriving — a place to pause, remember, and feel connected to those who came before us.
