Well done

Congratulations and well done to Rathcline Ladies who were victorious in the Intermediate Championship final replay on Saturday last. They defeated Mostrim in Pearse Park by two points in a very entertaining and hard fought match. The cup was presented to captain, Paula Kenny and player of the match was awarded to Lauren Farrell. Well done to all the girls who put in a huge effort all year to win this final and best of luck in the Leinster Clubs competitions. Well done to Enda McGann and James Hanley. Best wishes for a speedy recovery are extended to Dara, great to see her out and about again.

Hurling success

Congratulations to Kealan Cox and Johnny Casey, Killashee, and Eoin Donnellan, Lanesboro, and all the Wolfe Tones hurlers who defeated Clonguish in the Senior Championship final on Saturday evening last. After an exciting game Wolfe Tones emerged victorious by the narrowest of margins and captain, Eoin Donnellan was presented with the cup with Joe O’Brien, Clonguish receiving man of the match award. Best of luck to Wolfe Tones in the Leinster Clubs competitions.
