Jake and Barry are All-Ireland champions, the junior-As gear up for the North final while Conor McCarthy and Jake Morris look to win the under-20 title. All this and more in this week’s news on the Blues<\/h2>\n

There’s no doubt that the weekend belongs to cousins Barry Heffernan and Jake Morris who captured Celtic Crosses for themselves as Tipperary defeated Kilkenny, 3-25 to 0-20, in the All-Ireland senior hurling final. Barry followed in the footsteps of his uncle John by starring in the full-back line and so impressive was his performance that he was nominated for the Sunday Game man of the match accolade.  Indeed Barry was instrumental in John O’Dwyer’s goal as he played an impressive ball into space for Seamus Callanan to run onto. Jake was introduced as a 60th minute substitute and fired over an impressive point. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

We also wish to commiserate with both Grace O’Brien and Sarah Quigley as the Tipperary senior and intermediate cam\u00f3gs lost their All-Ireland semi-final clashes at the weekend. Unfortunately Grace was ruled out of the game due to concussion and we wish her well in her recovery.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Best of luck to Conor McCarthy, Jake Morris and the Tipperary under-20 hurlers in their All-Ireland final clash with Cork next weekend.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Our under-8 boys welcomed D\u00farlas \u00d3g to MacDonagh Park on Saturday morning for a blitz. Both clubs had three teams and there was great skill on show. The boys warmed-up to the sound of Slievenamon and The Galtee Mountain Boy before parading around the field and standing to attention for Amhr\u00e1n na bhFiain. After the game both teams practised chanting for the game tomorrow. Thanks to all the parents for providing food for everyone. The cocktail sausages went down a treat. There will be no training this coming week with the C\u00fal Camp taking place.<\/p>\n
