U10 trip to Leinster Final

The U10 panel had a great day in Dublin last Sunday. The lads battled hard against a much physically stronger Crumlin side but unfortunately their efforts were in vain as the wind and a heavy shower prevented them from reducing the half time arrears. Afterwards, Crumlin provided plenty of refreshments for the players and much needed tea and sandwiches for the mentors and supporters. Afterwards, we filled the bus with members of the Crumlin club who were looking for a lift to Croke Park. As you can imagine there was much banter between our lads and the Dubs ! We look forward to entertaining the Crumlin lads later in the year.

Thankfully, the sun shone for the remainder of the day and the lads had a great time in Croke Park celebrating the double Kilkenny victory. There was an especially loud cheer from Conor Mulhall and his team mates when John was brought on. A quick stop in McDonalds in Naas on the way home completed the day and we arrived home in Coon and Muckalee at 9pm…..only for the lads to escape onto the pitch in Muckalee to start hurling again ! Long may it continue !!!
