Juvenile Club AGM

This year's juvenile club AGM will take place on Tuesday 15th December at 8pm at the clubhouse.

North Tipperary Divisional Teams

Congratulations to David Grace, Darra King , Josh Egan, Matthew Power and Sam Loughran who were members of the North Tipp U13 Football team that won all their games on Saturday last to claim the Divisional trophy. This achievement is of particular significance as it is 21 yrs since the North last beat the South division at this level.

Conor Power and Neil Webster were part of the U14 team that beat the Mid Tipp team but lost out to the other two divisions on Saturday also.

Well done to all the boys. You represented your club with pride.

Senior Notes:

Under-21 Hurling:

Our Under-21's played out a brilliant game against Newport Gaels on Sunday last 22nd Nov in Newport. Both sides put in a tremendous 80 minutes hurling on a well prepared pitch. Coming close to Full-time, Ballina were 8-points behind, but rallied superbly to force the game into extra time.

In the extra twenty minutes - both sides gave their best again, before Newport Gaels got over the line on a scoreline of Ballina 2-20, Newport Gaels 4-17. Hard luck to the lads and well done to Newport Gaels.

Ballina: Adrian Power; Rory Clarke, Aidan Hanley, David Kelly; Ronan Bourke, Michael Breen, Jamie Collins; Conor Maguire, Terry O'Halloran; Eamonn Healy, Michael Hurley, Dan Finnerty; Ben King, Steven O'Brien, Bill Floyd. Subs Used: Eoin Slattery, Conan O'Sullivan, Eoin Kennedy, Noel Bulger, Michael Collins & Paddy O'Donovan.

Junior "A" Football:

The only game left for this year is the Junior "A" Football Final against Newport. We expect this to be played this weekend or next. Keep an eye out on Fixtures for details.

Inter-County Table Quiz:

Thanks to all those who attended the Inter-County Table Quiz on Friday night last in Boru on the Hill. Adrian King performed excellently as Quiz master.
