\u201cWe all identify with our own place. My place is Nenagh and I respect every man who is from every parish in Ireland who is identifying with his home. That\u2019s the breeding since the world was made. I see the club as nothing only a way of giving our locality an airing on the public stage. It gives the youth of our town an opportunity to play our games. That\u2019s what I see our club as\u201d – Jimmy Minogue<\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n

Under-6 & under-8 training continues at the usual times. Matches are being organised so many will soon play their first match for their club. Keep up the great attendance.<\/p>\n

Well done to the under-10 players who played an excellent challenge match away to Roscrea in terrible conditions. Many thanks to our hosts for organising the match. Training continues at the usual times.<\/p>\n

Our under-12 footballers lost out to a very strong Inane Rovers in their under-12A north semi-final on Friday night. Their management were delighted with the players\u2019 attitude and commitment on the field. <\/p>\n

The 2015 Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g street league kicked off in glorious sunshine on Monday. It will run for a total of four Mondays. The boys and girls on the teams were evenly matched so all saw plenty of action. Well done to the juvenile and camogie club mentors for the great organisation.<\/p>\n

The under-14 hurlers travelled to Patrickswell for a challenge on Sunday evening. Although short a number of regulars a very young team performed very well and came away with a comprehensive victory. Man of the match Ben West scored six goals from the edge of the square. We had a bye in the football last week and return to action on Wednesday with a third round clash away to Inane Rovers at 6.30pm. Training continues on Mondays from 6.30pm to 7.30pm and on Saturdays from 11am to 12.15pm.<\/p>\n
