A massive congratulations to Billy O’Brien, Jake Donellan Houlihan and the Tipperary Minor hurling team who were crowned All- Ireland champions on Sunday last.
Tipperary were down to 13 men in the first half, but showed nothing but heart and gave a heroic preformance to get over the line after extra time. The final score was 2-17 to 3-12 with Billy contributing 1-1 to the tally along with Jake scoring 0-3 from frees.

Camogie Notes
U15
Intermediate
Our team played in the Tullamore 7s on Saturday. It was a great day out with some fine camogie played by our girls.
We played 2 games. We won the first game well and played a very tight contest with Tullamore in the 2nd.
Goals are often the difference in the 7s game, and unfortunately Tullamore got 3 of them in the first half and we lost by a goal in the end. Thanks to all who travelled and to Tullamore Camogie Club for organising it.
Tipperary
Tipperary played Kilkenny in Round 5 of the Glen Dimplex All Ireland Championship on Saturday. Grace O’Brien started corner forward and scored 4 points from play. This fifth win has left Tipperary top of their group and means a direct spot in the All Ireland semi finals in 4 weeks time which will be held in Kilkenny.
Well done to Grace Cleary and Rhiannon Jones lining out with the Tipperary U16A team in the All Ireland Championship.
