UNDER 11 HURLING:
The Under 11s continued their current run in the Division 3 City League
with a good win over De La Salle ‘B on Friday last in Ferrybank. The game was
played in perfect conditions with some good hurling from both sides.
Ferrybank gradually took control of the game and led at half-time. The
second-half continue in the same way with our defenders cutting out the DLS
chances and our forwards taking some nice scores.

JUNIOR HURLING:
Our Junior Hurlers recorded their opening win in this year’s John J
Murphy sponsored competition with a hard fought win over a determined Fenor
side last Friday night, winning on a scoreline of 0-16 to 1-10.
There wasn’t a lot between the sides in the opening half, with Jeff
Lawless scoring some good points from placed balls, ensuring Ferrybank led by
0-09 to 0-05 at the break.
Ferrybank kept the scoreboard ticking over in the second-half, taking
their scores with Jeff, and James Murphy doing the damage with three points
each, and Jamie Diggins chipping in with a vital score, leaving seven between
the sides entering the closing stages.
Fenor closed the gap with 1-01 late on, but the defence held firm when
it mattered to record a deserved win.
