Resting after the climb!
Our U16s completed their sponsored climbs of Keeper Hill and Galtymore last weekend and in the processed fundraised to buy a much needed set of jerseys for the panel. Thanks to all who provided transport and supervision during both climbs ensuring all returned safely. Our churchgate collection took place in the beginning of March and our annual table quiz will again take place on Good Friday 22nd April in the Marian Hall. Your generosity in supporting these fundraisers is greatly appreciated by the Juvenile Club, particularly in the current climate, and it would be very difficult to run the juvenile club without such support from the local community.
Reaching the summit!!
As part of the Respect games organised by the Tipperary Bord na nOg at the interval in the National Hurling League matches against Kilkenny and Waterford in Semple Stadium, the Juvenile GAA Club were asked to provide players from the U12 panel to participate. Alvis Danko and Dirk Leimlehner played at halftime in the Kilkenny match and Aedin Hogan and Tara Mockler played at halftime in the Waterford match. Well done to all the young players who enjoyed the occasion and the opportunity to participate and play in the Stadium.
Well done to James McCormack and Micheal Carey who represented the Juvenile Club on the U14 North Football panel that played in the inter-divisional tournament held in Ballylooby last weekend. While the North were defeated in both games both players acquitted themselves very well.
Most players have now forwarded their 2011 membership subscriptions and forms. However, there are still some forms and money outstanding. Please ensure that you return your form and membership as soon as possible as the text numbers have to be updated for this year.
Borris-Ileigh GAA News
U21 Hurling:
The Under 21’s had a good win over Templederry on St. Patricks Day. There was a good display of hurling by all concerned. Date and time to be fixed for next round.
Senior Hurling:
Annacarthy defeated Borris -Ileigh by four points last Saturday. It was a very poor display and a lot of players will have to step up to the mark especially coming up to c/ship when hurling gets much faster. Next match is against Upperchurch provisionally fixed for Tue. 29th of March at home under lights.
Junior A Hurling:
First league match is fixed for Sunday 27th March 2011
Minor B Football:
We will play Newport on the Wed. 30th March at 6pm in Borrisoleigh.
