NURSERY GROUP:
It was a very busy weekend for the Nursery Group, with another bumper turnout out on the Friday night slot, which is on from 5:45pm to 6:45pm, with new faces coming along and joining in.
Last Saturday morning, our Under 7 boys and girls travelled out to Carriganore to play in the Waterford blitz, in which we had two teams competing. With a very young age profile all the way down to 5 years of age, this didn’t deter the side, as they put in a superb performance showing excellent skills, creating chances, and scoring plenty of goals in the matches.
A good display all round from the team, and no doubt the coaches/mentors will have been pleased with the performances. Special word of thanks to Paul Westwood of Ferrybank Barbers, which is based on the Abbey Road Retail Park for sponsoring the team in the blitz.
Our Under 8 Camogie trains every Saturday morning at 10am, and it was great to see some new faces coming down and getting involved with the group.
COUNTY DUTY:
Congratulations to the Waterford Senior Hurling team on capturing the Allianz League Division 1 trophy last Saturday evening in Thurles, while hard luck to the Waterford Senior Camogie side that were defeated by Wexford in the Littlewoods Camogie Division 2 semi-final in Carlow last Sunday afternoon, which included Doxer Burns (coach) and players Iona Heffernan, Niamh Ahearne, and Valerie O' Brien.
