Intermediate Hurling
Well done to the panel of players and the management team of Conor Gleeson, John Coleman, Kevin Slattery and Gerard O’ Keeffe on securing the Mid Tipperary title in the Ragg last Saturday. It was great to have such good support. This was a real team performance. Niall Teehan was the man of the match and Johnny Guilfoyle accepted the cup amid great excitement. We now contest the County Quarter- Final against North opposition. This match will most likely take place next Saturday and you are asked to check next weeks. Star.

Best of luck to the juniors who take on Thurles KRF in the Mid semi final this Sunday in Holycross at 3pm. A win here will see us qualify for the final against Holycross. Please support this team.
Mid Scor
The Mid Senior Scor competition will be taking place at the end of the year. For the past good number of years the club has had no representation in senior Scor.

We are asking those interested in taking part to come forward in the next month.
