Charity Walk
Serving North Tipperary, Limerick and Clare, Milford Hospice provides the highest quality of care to patients, family and friends in areas of palliative care and services to the older people.
We are going to climb Croagh Patrick with the aim of raising much needed funds for this incredible organisation. Those that are climbing are Martina Cahill, Mary Murphy, Jackie Holland, TP Sullivan, Enda O’Sullivan, Elaine McWeeney and Bernie Gratton.
We guarantee that all money raised will go directly to Milford Hospice. All expenses incurred during the walk will be paid for ourselves.

The boys had a wedding gift for the happy couple on Monday just after the first round of the hurling championship. Congratulations to David and Ellen and best wishes for a happy life together from all in the juvenile club but especially from the under-16 panel.
The under-16s take on Toomevara tonight, Monday, at 7pm in Toomevara.

Congratulations to Jake Morris, Conor McCarthy and the Tipperary under-20 side who defeated Waterford in the Munster semi-final on Tuesday evening last in Semple Stadium, 3-23 to 0-10. Jake was in flying form scoring 0-13 (0-11f) while Conor had a fine game at corner back. They now play Cork in the Munster final.

In Gaelic football Mason Cawley, Jack McLoughlin and Sam O’Farrell all played for the under-14s against Galway on Saturday last. Well done lads.
