GARRYSPILLANE GAA CLUB NOTES

The Club would like to wish T.J Ryan and St. Thomas of Galway the very best of luck going for their third county title in a row this coming Sunday.

2020 Season

That concludes our 2020 season, in what were strange circumstances all our teams did their best to keep the club Senior, Junior A and our 21s and minors competed at the knockout stages of their competitions.

Looking forward to 2021 already.

Congratulations

Congratulations to Roibéard Donovan on being named on the Limerick Leaders Senior Hurling Team of the year.

Walkway

We are delighted to announce that the walkway lights have now been installed and we have created a safe place from the busy roads for you to enjoy your evenings walk. Lights will remain on each evening until 10pm. This would not have been possible without your continued support and the support of Ballyhoura leader funding.

Bord Na nÓg

U6’s and U8’s are finished hurling training for the year. Thanks to all and hope to see ye next year.

U11’s beat Glenroe Monday evening 3.5 to 3 points. Next fixture is Sunday 11th October at 6pm Garryspillane v Croom in Knocklong

U12’s – Playing Hopital/Herberstown in Hospital this Thursday evening at 6.30.

U14’s -Hard luck to our U14’s who finished the season with a loss to Ahane in the Division 1 shield semi final in Ahane last Saturday evening on a score of 4.12 to .12 points.

The score does not reflect the match as 3 of the goals were early on in the first half. Our lads were 3.5 to 1 point down at the first water break and showed great determination and heart to battle on right to the end but the elusive goals did not come. Defiantly stick with it lads ye have loads of talent and that county title is not far away.

Panel: Tiernan Ryan, James Walsh, Eamonn Crawford, Oisin Crowley, Eoghan Beston, Declan Heavey, Seanie Gallahue, Hugh Flannaghan, Jack Gallagher, James Ryan, Cian Ryan, Lewis Stewart, Adam Corbett, Jamie McGrath, Cormac Ryan, Evan Sheedy, James Gallagher, Paul McGrath, Aaron Hayes
