Intercounty

All roads lead to Walsh Park this Sunday when the Waterford Senior Hurlers take on Cork in a vital Munster Championship game. Best of luck to all involved especially our own lads, Conor, Neil and Michael.

U15 Football Semi Finals

Last Monday (2nd May) saw both of our U15 teams take part in their respective county semi finals. Our division 1 team played Rathgormack in Dungarvan club grounds and lost out by two points after being 11 points down at one stage. It was a tough defeat but everyone in the panel can hold their head high as they really battled hard.

The division 4 team lost out in the plate semi final against Portlaw/Ballyduff in Leamybrien. The boys put in their best performance of the year and can be very proud of themselves.

At juvenile level, success isn’t measured entirely by winning championships. Both of our U15 panels have really improved as individuals and as a team throughout the year. There will be better days ahead for them and great credit must go to the coaches that give their time and dedication to help the boys develop.

U13 Football Semi Final

The boys of the division 4 team took the short spin down to Stradbally to take on St. Pats in their semi-final last night (4th May). After a super intense contest the Ballinacourty boys took the victory by a single point with a score of 0-10 to 0-09. Well done boys and best of luck in the county final.

Our division 1 team play their semi final against Gaultier on Wednesday evening in Stradbally at 6:30pm. Best of luck boys!

Town & Country Football Leagues

Our U12 boys were in action on Friday (29th April) as one group made the trip Tramore and came away with a victory while the other group lost narrowly at home after a good performance against Clashmore. They also played out an exciting draw against Stradbally on Friday 6th May.

The U11 lads also had mixed fortunes as one group beat St. Oliver’s and the other group lost to Lismore.

Academy

Our academy continues every Saturday morning and new members are always welcome. Planning has begun for the return of the “Mini All Irelands” for the first time since 2019. Covid meant that we couldn’t run this for the past two years but we’re delighted to reinstate the tournament because it always generates excitement and enjoyment for all the boys. Watch this space!

U10 Football

Well done to our under 10's who put in a fantastic morning of football out in the Dungarvan GAA grounds last Saturday. It was a great morning for football and the lads made the most of it. Thanks to Dungarvan and Bricky Rangers for two tough games.

Bingo

Sunday Night Bingo continues every Sunday at 8pm.
