Rathkeale GAA Club Notes:
Woodlands House Hotel County Junior A Hurling Championship Group 2:
Well done to our Junior A Hurlers, who have made a fantastic start to the Woodlands House Hotel County Junior A Hurling Championship. In the opening round, our lads enjoyed a fantastic comeback against Ahane. After trailing by 2 goals at halftime, Rathkeale put in a tremendous effort to win by a solitary point, on a scoreline of 1-18 to 2-14. Last Wednesday evening, Rathkeale put in another determined display, winning on scoreline of 2-11 to 1-12 against Bruff in Ballingarry. Well done to all involved and we wish you all the best with your preparations for round 3, which will be an outing against Garryspillane on August 24th in Ballyagran.
