UNDER 14 HURLING:
Its semi-final action for the Under 14 hurlers tonight (
Monday September 18th) in St. Molleran’s GAA grounds at 6:30pm,
where they take on Kilrossanty. This will be a tough test for the team, as
their opponents went undefeated in the league campaign. Your support will be
welcomed on the night. Best of luck lads!
UNDER 16 HURLING:
No joy for the Under 16 hurlers last Monday night as they
were edged out by Dungarvan by the minimum score; 2-09 to 2-08. The team have
now completed their league campaign, and will have to see how other results go
in the hope to securing a knockout spot.
JUNIOR FOOTBALL:
Our Junior Footballers exited the John J Murphy sponsored
competition at the semi-final stage last Friday night in Dunhill, where they
were defeated by Erin’s Own on a scoreline of 1-14 to 0-12.
Missing a few key players going into the game, there was
very little to separate the sides in the first-half, with Erin’s Own leading by
a point at the break
In the second half,
Ferrybank played a lot better, and began to take control of the game, opening
up a three point lead, but with the game entering the final quarter, Erin’s Own got in for a
goal that spurred them on, and from their got on top, getting the points
towards the end of the game to run out winners.

We had one winner in the Déise Draw which took place last
Wednesday night in the Mount Sion centre. Congratulations to Eamonn O' Neill, Marymount,
