A big week coming up for our senior men’s team as they take on Tír Chonaill Gaels Juniors in the Toureen Junior Championship final this Sunday in Ruislip.

The two sides have met twice this season already and on both occasions the North West London outfit came out on top beating the Harps in the Mularky and McArdle cup finals. However the lads been working hard all year and after retaining their division 2 status for next season, they will be going into the game with a quiet confidence of causing an upset.

The game is scheduled for a 2:30pm throw in time. The lads would greatly appreciate as many friends, family and supporters to attend as possible to help cheer them over the line and bring the cup back to South London.

Training continues for the lads this week in Prendergast Ladywell School on Tuesday and Thursday evening at 7:45pm. As always, we are on the lookout for potential players and if you are interested in joining our welcoming club, contact Enda on 07522 723765.

Our ladies are continuing to train away and still have an outside chance of securing a league title. Their next fixture is on the 29th of September (opponent TBC).  The girls are currently training in Island Gardens on Thursday evenings from 8-9pm and on Peckham Rye on Saturday morning at 11am.
