MINOR HURLING:
Our Minor hurlers scored an impressive victory over
Stradbally last Wednesday night winning on a scoreline of 2-21 to 1-05. An imposing
opening half, in which the team scored 2-14, laid the foundation for this win.
Early scores from Eimhin Burns and Charlie McLoughlin got
the lads of to a good start, and moments later, Eimhin scored a goal from close
range. Further points from Charlie Atkins and Ben Fitzpatrick extended the lead.
Midway through the half, Ryan Tierney got goal number two, blasting the
sliothar to the net. The first-half dominance kept up with more scores from
Stephen O' Kane, Cody Griffin, Charlie and Eimhin ensuring a 2-14 to 0-0
lead at the break.
To their credit, Stradbally never gave up, and kept battling
away and were rewarded with a goal of their own, and recorded some good points.
However, points from Nathon, Charlie and Ryan saw Ferrybank run out easy
winners.
With the group stages now completed, with Ferrybank winning
four out of their five games, the team have now qualified for the knockout
stages, with their opponents yet to be confirmed.

Super effort by everyone; a special mention to those playing
