Minors loose in Semi final stage.
St Martin Minor Hurlers lost to Glenmore in the County Semi Final in Bennetsbridge last Saturday 29th September. In fairness they were a much older and stronger team.
St Martins never gave up in difficult circumstances but can look back at a year of progress despite the loss and can look forward to the minor football league final as some consolation.
St Martins: Jason Shore, Loughlin Hogan, Alan Kelly, Paddy Heffernan, Jack Dowling, Paddy Brennan, Adrian Farrell, Shane Kinsella, Steven Walsh, James Callanan, Robert Reid, Conor Dowling, Donal Shore, Shane Dowling, Colm O’Neill.
Subs: David Walsh, Tommy Quirke, John Joe Kelly, Richard Teehan, William Trousdell (all used), David Healy, Aidan Egan, Brandon Sheehan, Ronan Tynan, Eoin Murphy, Damien Egan & Mark Dowling.
U10 travel to Gowran blitz.
Last Saturday 22nd September our under 10 hurling panel travelled to Gowran where they competed in the Young Irelands under10 tournament.The boys had three games in which they won two. The first against Bennetsbridge which was a thrilling match to watch. The second match was against Graig-Ballycallan. The boys fought very hard in this game coming out the victors at the final whistle. Our last game was against our Hosts Young Irelands. The boys were starting to tire in this game but they put up a commanding performance which resulted in a draw upon the final whistle.The boys had three super games that day doing the club proud.
