HURLING
Our Senior Hurlers were defeated
recently in the semi-final of Division 1A. A physically stronger Ennis
C.B.S. team got the better of them in glorious sunshine at Gurteen
on June the 8th. Despite fielding a very young team our lads put up
a great display in the first half and battled bravely right to the
end. No one could be faulted for effort and the displays of Briain
Dillon, Anthony Rodgers, Jamie Fitzgibbon and Conor O'Loughlin were
worth noting.
Finally Mr.O'Leary would like to thank the panel of players for their
dedication and enthusiasm for training during the year.
GERRY
GLEESON

1st and 2nd classes wish to thank their
hurling and football coach, Gerry Gleeson for the commitment and time

a big 'thank you' card from 2nd class.
