Juvenile GAA Club Match Report
Under 11 Football
Our U11 footballers took part in a midweek blitz in Ballinameela, where they played two highly competitive games against St. Oliver’s and Clashmore. There was plenty of great teamwork on display, and the boys gave it their all in both matches. A solid evening’s football all round!
Under 12 Football
Our U12s travelled to Clashmore on Friday evening for what turned out to be a brilliant performance. With 18 players togged out, everyone got a run and contributed to a big team win. There was some excellent attacking football on show, and the lads finished with an impressive scoreline. It’s back to hurling now for this group as the summer schedule kicks in.
U10 / U9 Football
The U9 footballers kicked off their 2025 campaign with their first All-County Go Games blitz on Saturday morning in Dungarvan GAA grounds. An early start helped us dodge the worst of the weather, and the boys put in great performances across three games against The Nire, Stradbally, and the host club Dungarvan. This group blends our U9s and U10s, with a few U8s stepping up—and they all showed serious skill and effort. A great morning’s work!
Camogie Notes
Under 8s & 10s
Our U8 and U10 camogie teams travelled to Abbeyside on Saturday for their first blitz of the season. With three matches each against Abbeyside, Brickey’s, An Rinn, and Dungarvan, it was a busy day with great competition. The U8s had a fantastic turnout and everyone got game time. Meanwhile, our U10s, though tight on numbers, showed real heart and put in some superb performances. It’s clear that the hard work at training is paying off—well done girls! We now look ahead to our next blitz in Cappoquin in June.
Under 8 Camogie
Under 10 Camogie
Under 14 Camogie
Our U14s were narrowly defeated in their league clash with Abbeyside last Tuesday in Ardmore. After a strong first half where we led by a point at the break, Abbeyside struck with two quick goals in the second half to take control. But our girls rallied and closed the gap back to just a single point by full-time. A gutsy performance and we now face Clonea in the final league fixture.
U15 County Development Squad
Well done to Maisie Roche, Sarah Murray, and Lizzie Prendergast who represented Waterford on the U15 County Development Panel in Thomastown last Saturday against Kilkenny. A special congratulations to Lizzie Prendergast who captained the side on the day—fantastic recognition for her dedication and leadership!
Adult Footballers
Our adult men’s footballers wrapped up their league campaign with a hard-fought win over Kill in wet and windy conditions on Saturday evening in Ardmore. After a sluggish start, the lads clicked into gear with big scores from Eddie Flavin (2-2), Seamus Keating (1-2), and Jamie Bryan (11 points, 6 from frees). Kenny Murphy, Jack Keane, and Joe MacNamara also got on the scoreboard. Attention now turns to hurling for the summer, with the football championship resuming in September—where we’ll be facing Ballinameela, The Nire, and Affane in the group stages.
