U15
Our rescheduled hurling match away against Garryspillane took place on Friday the 19th of July, where we narrowly lost out by 3.7 to 1.9. This was followed up on the 22nd with a home fixture against unbeaten Adare, where we came from 1.9 to 1.2 down to record a hugely impressive draw on a scoreline of 1.13 to Adare and 2.10 to NCW.
