After months of hard work, planning, anticipation and preparation the Féile weekend has swept by in a blaze of energy, games, excitement, companionship, appreciation and cooperation. Our three visiting clubs Éire Óg, Annacarty Co. Tipperary, St Fechins, Termonfeckin Co. Louth & Na Piarsaigh Co. Westmeath slotted in like old friends and despite being pitted against each other in our group games, all clubs based in Killurin followed each others progress through the Féile na nGael 2017 competition with interest and good wishes. We thank the three visiting clubs for their company and courtesy over the weekend and wish them safe journeys back to their respective counties, safe in the knowledge that we have all been responsible for creating a weekend of wonderful memories for the 140 odd children who visited Glynn Barntown parish. We also wish all other clubs we met along the way on the field of play well for the remainder of the playing season and thank the Bunclody and St Martins Clubs who hosted group games for our B hurling team and camogie team on Friday evening. A massive thank you must go to Wexford Co Board and the overall Féile na nGael committee for their incredible orchestration of this huge event in Wexford, Carlow and Kilkenny. I think its fair to say that the GAA has put itself forward on a huge stage over this weekend and has painted itself in the annual glory that is Féile .
