FEILE “PEIL NA NÓG” FOOTBALL COMPETITION
Our U15 boys represented Tipperary in division three of the John West Feile All Ireland in Ballyragget, Co. Kilkenny on Saturday July 1. This was a huge achievement for all involved. Having won two games in their group against Barrow Rangers and Lancashire they then secured a Cup semi-final spot against Erins Own. The scores came easier to the Kilkenny team in the first half but the true character of this group of boys was shown in the second half when they fought back, However, Erin’s Own got the breaks and won 6-04 to 3-03. Erin’s Own were the stronger team and went on to win the Cup Final. The Rovers can be proud of their performance. Thanks to all involved for giving us the opportunity to take part in this fantastic competition. It was a fantastic day in St. Patrick’s GAA Club, Ballragget. Thanks to the Senior Club for sponsoring club tops for the full panel of twenty-six and the Juvenile Club who provided the team bus. Thanks to James for driving the bus and his patience with us all day. Thanks to parents and supporters who travelled on the day.
Thanks to the management team of Mattie Cummins, Mark Hally and Michael Lonergan. Finally, thanks to all the players, who made their county, club and parents proud and gave it their all.
