Thomas McCurtains club notes

September 17, 2018

The Hurlers are through to the Championship Final after a fantastic win over Granuaile on Sunday afternoon. They had a five point lead at the half time whistle thanks to goals from Conor Hogan and Craig Doyle. A brace in the second from Alan Clancy was more than enough to secure the win and book their place in the Final. 

The Ladies Footballers travelled over to Dublin to take part in the All Ireland 7s tournament in St Sylvesters. They lost their first game to Kilmovee Shamrocks form Mayo before winning their next three games on the trot against Steelstown Brian Ógs of Derry, Baltinglass from Wickow and Kildare's Maynooth to make the Cup Semi Finals. There they played Tuam Cortoon and unfortunately lost out by a goal. Well done to all involved on a great weekend for the club. 

Hard luck to our Reserve Footballers who lost out to a strong North London Shamrocks side on Saturday afternoon.

Saturday will be a busy day for the club. The Ladies are in League action against Parnells in Goodmayes while in Greenford the Reserve Footballers and the Hurlers are both in Championship action against Parnells and Kilburn Gaels respectively, both at 2.00pm.
