Limerick GAA
Congratulations to Billy Lee and the Limerick Footballers on their fantastic 2nd round win over Antrim in the Allianz FL Div 3 on a score-line of 2-09 to 0-11. Hard luck to our hurlers who lost out to Wexford in their opening round game in Wexford Park. Limerick hit 18 wides, but its early days yet and we can be proud to say the Barry Nash had an outstanding game.
