The Ferrybank Under 8 & 9 hurlers played Glenmore in two challenge games last night. With 27 players lining out between both age groups. The Under 8's soared ahead in the first half, and enjoyed great scores. However, the second half posed a more challenging test, where Glenmore came right back into it, as the team got complacent with the early lead, but Ferrybank hung in their and ran out worthy winners. The Under 9 match was a much tighter game, but Ferrybank came through in the end. Well done to all the players, and thanks to both sides for the manner in which they played the game. UNDER 8 TEAM: Adam Aspel, Caolan MacCathmhaoil, Shane Purcell, Izaak Richards, Joy Hondeau, Alex Derham, Conor Daly, Kyle Daly, Michael MacLaurence, Jay Bagge, Fionn McGarrity, Shane Egan, Callum O' Sullivan, Paddy MacKay.

UNDER 16 CAMOIGE: Ferrybank Under 16 Camoige side bowed out of the County Championship at the semi final stage, when a much stronger Butlerstown/Tramore outfit won on a scoreline of 4-10 to 0-3.

Further second half goals from Niamh Ahearne, Aislinn O' Keeffe, and Iona with her second goal secured the win.
