U12 LADIES FOOTBALL FINALS
A great morning of football in Pairc Carman featuring our two u12 teams. First up was our green team in div 2 vs Clonard. A closely fought battle with Clonard holding on to the lead in the first half was followed by a strong come back in the second half with GB trailing by just one point in the closing minutes. Great team work and passing did it for them in the end as a great goal set up by Gia and Ciara and smashed into the net by Libby pushed Glynn Barntown into the lead by two points. Great jubilation when the whistle blew and the girls thoroughly deserved to be Shield county champs. Huge well done to everyone. Final score 2-2 to 1-3
The second match followed immediately afterwards in div 4 with the u12s providing a guard of honour for the u11s as they left the dressing room. A tough battle against Slaney Gaels followed and the opposition proved to be the stronger team on the day. Again some great teamwork on display and everyone gave their all. This young team have done incredibly well to make it so far in the u12 league and the outlook is bright for next year. Well done everyone.

U21 CO. FINAL
It was not to be for our u21 hurlers in their Premier Co Final on Tuesday evening in Innovate Wexford Park. It was a tight tough game with only 2 points separating the sides at half time to St Martins advantage and our lads were still well in the game until midway through the second half when ur opposition scored the goal both sides were seeking. They kicked on from there and we were defeated by 8 points having fought to the end. With12 of the starting 15 underage again next year the future looks promising.
