Intercounty
Unfortunately, the Waterford Senior Hurlers came up short in their All-Ireland semifinal against Limerick last Saturday. On behalf of everyone in the club we like to offer our commiserations to all involved, including our own lads Conor, Neil and Michael, and especially our thanks for the superb entertainment offered up over the past few weeks and months. Ye were a credit to yourselves and brought a great deal of joy to thousands.
On Monday the minor hurlers played Cork in the Munster Final with Billy O Connell, Charlie Treen, Seanie O Callaghan, Aidan Higgins, Darragh Walsh and Jack McGrath all involved. Hopefully we’ll be able to report some positive news next week.
Championship 2021
With the intercounty season now complete it’s time to gear up for the club championship. And what a game we have to kick things off with the 2020 Senior Football Final against Rathgormack fixed for Walsh Park at 17.00 on Saturday 21st August.
The games will be coming thick and fast from there on with the hurling championship for our 3 adult teams beginning in the next few weeks also.
