Juvenile News Quiz Proceeds Half the
proceeds
of our recent Primary Schools Table Quiz, held on March 30th
in Killeagh
Hall, were presented to Inch Hall Committee Members Majella Hurley, Margaret Mulcahy, No- reen O’Keeffe and Rich- ard Collins on Wednesday last in Pairc Ui Chinnéide. Well done to the commit-
and we were well behind at half time. Ten minutes into the second half the boys started to play really well, digging in deep. We were three goals down, but they never gave up - hitting the post, the keep- er – everything except the net. But with fantastic sup- port from the spectators, they kept trying and final- ly broke through with a brace of goals and points. They won the match in great style........ 5-9 to 4-6. It was an amazing come- back. Darragh O’Brien, Conor Burns and Fionn Murphy were names that stood out, but everyone put in an outstanding ef- fort. Well done to all !! We played our first U-12 hurl- ing game against Bride Rovers on Thursday 27th April. Darragh O’Brien was the captain for the day, and led by example with a man of the match display. The first half, we were completely off. But after a few changes in the second half, we improved, but not enough to match Bride Rovers skill and strength. The final score was 7-9 to 3-2. We had a lot to improve on after
that game. The following Monday
we met St Colman’s at home. Captain for the day was Sean O’Riordan who led his team from the very first minute. We played very well in the first half, putting up a great score. Diarmuid Buckley played some great
with Sean Meade
Barry Walsh increasing the scoreline, we ran out clear winners – 8-13 to 0-1. We were out again the following Wednesday night – a hurling game against
Captain for the day was Liam Considine
Watergrasshill. and
he had an outstanding game along with all the other boys who wore the Killeagh/Itas jersey that evening. It was a tough, close encounter and we needed a great team effort if we were to win. And that is what we got........... and more. They chased, hooked and blocked and Sean Meade in goal made some fantastic saves. A very proud display from each and every one of the boys. An excellent team performance. We won 2-6 to 2-4. Well done! We would again like to thank the parents who are a constant source of en- couragement to the team. We couldn’t do it without all the support you give.
