LOUGHMORE/CASTLEINEY G.A.A. CLUB Weekly Notes 9th Sept 2019




Senior Hurling: On Saturday evening last in Templtuohy our senior hurlers clinched a qualifying position for the County championship with a comprehensive 3-25 to 0-18 victory over Upperchurch/Drombane.
Usually the men in black and amber prove pretty stiff opponents, however on this occasion, thanks to a top class performance from our team and a 2-15 to 0-09 half time lead it did not materialise and a strong second half display clinched victory.

Junior Hurling: On Sunday evening at Holycross our junior hurlers contested the Mid junior A hurling final and at the end of the hour had to give best to a much better Thurles Sarsfields outfit losing our 1-15 to 2-22.
Perhaps losing a few of our stronger players to senior status from earlier rounds played a huge part but overall a very poor display from a team that had prepared pretty well. They now must pick up the pieces as they head into a County quarter final v West winners Clonoulty.

Fixtures: This Wednesday night at 8pm in Clonoulty County senior football final group game v Aherlow Gaels. (note time).
Sunday 15th September at 5.30pm in Templetuohy Mid senior hurling quarter final v Moycarkey/Borris. Extra time if necessary.
