County Leagues
The county leagues continued last week with the final round of the football. The Seniors recorded a 1-point victory over Gaultier on Friday last (0-13 to 1-09), whilst the Intermediate team were beaten by Rathgormack (0-11 to 3-08).
The final games in the hurling league section will take place on Tuesday 20th July (Division 1 away to Tallow) and Wednesday 21st July (Division 5 away to Ballydurn).
Intercounty
Both the Waterford U-20 teams were out of luck last week as the hurlers were beaten by Tipperary on Monday and the footballers beaten by Tipperary also. Hard luck to all involved.
There was better news from Nowlan Park on Saturday where the Senior hurlers overcame Laois in sweltering conditions in their All-Ireland Qualifier. Next up is Galway in Thurles at 14.00 on Saturday. Hopefully, we see another good performance to see us progress and we wish the team and mentors the very best of luck and in particular our own lads Conor, Neil and Michael.
