Club Notes 08.06.26
U14 Football
Our U14 footballers travelled to Touraneena on Wednesday evening to take on Affane/Naomh Bríd in the league. Missing a number of players, the lads faced a very strong opposition on the night. Despite the result not going our way, the team battled hard from start to finish and never gave up. Credit to all the players for their effort and commitment.
Next up for the U14s is the hurling league fixture in Ardmore on Wednesday, 18th June at 6.30pm. Best of luck to the squad.
U12 Football
Our U12 footballers are back in action on Tuesday evening when they travel to Ballyduff Lower for their next league game. The team currently sits at the top of the league table following a series of excellent performances and will be hoping to maintain that position with another strong display. Best of luck to the players and mentors.
Camogie Notes
U12 Camogie
Our U12 camogie team welcomed Ballyduff Upper to Ardmore last Tuesday and produced another excellent performance. The girls continue to show great improvement and teamwork, earning another impressive victory. They return to action this Tuesday evening at home against Lismore. We wish them the very best of luck.
U14 Camogie
Our U14 camogie team were involved in a thrilling contest against Clonea last Thursday evening. The girls put in a tremendous effort but were unlucky to come out on the wrong side of a two-point defeat. There were many positives to take from the performance, with plenty of potential evident throughout the team. Attention now turns to their final group game against Portlaw, where a strong performance could see them build momentum heading into the knockout stages.
