Congratulations to our victorious Street League champions! The boys and girls played under county names on the evening with Kilkenny beating Tipp in the A final (we are giving them this one and only this one!). Clare took the spoils in the B final. Both were presented with cups by juvenile chairman Michael Geaney and Camogie chairperson Denise Morris. Many thanks to the Geaney family for sponsoring the trophies. The efforts of the under-12 Camogie and hurling teams mentors made all of this possible so a big thank you to you all. It was a hugely enjoyable month for the families and friends of all involved.<\/p>\n

Our under-14 footballers interest in the championship ended on Friday last with a defeat to Inane Rovers in the north semi-final.
