Welcome to this week’s club news. SENIOR FOOTBALL: to our senior footballers on reaching the semi-final of the Renault County Championship. They defeated Blessington on a score of 1-10 to 0-12 – the narrowest of margins. A result truly reflective of what an on-the-edge-of-the-seat contest which gave great pleasure in the openness and honesty of its play and in the skill and athleticism of the players on both sides. From Éire Óg's point of view the only negative associated with the occasion was in the paucity of its support. Rathnew will be Éire Óg's opponents in the semi-final on 13th September at 4:30pm in Aughrim. 5KM RACE SEPTEMBER 19th Éire Óg is an ambitious club and had a number of projects in mind for the future e.g. a hurling wall for which planning permission has been received and which is seen as a priority. These schemes unfortunately require finance so the club is forced to continuously devise methods for raising money. The latest is a chip-timed 5km race on a scenic Greystones seafront course on Saturday September 19th. Starting time 10 a.m. Entry 15 euro.

The latter's position as a stronghold of the game was highlighted by the number of kids wearing its favours as they tipped around with camán and sliothar during the game. COMHGÁIRDEACHAS. It is not often that Cill Mantáin names grace the pages of an All-Ireland programme but they will do so on Sept 12thwhen the county's u-21 hurlers take on Meath in the B final. The game is being played in the mecca of hurling, Thurles, as a curtain-raiser to the A final between Loch Garman and Luimneach. Éire Óg has 4 players in the squad, 3 of whom featured in the quarter-final in Athleague viz. Anto Byrne, James 'Pooch' Cranley and Danny Nolan. Seán Hughes was on the bench. Maith sibh lads! Gach dea-ghuí for the final. WEEKLY LOTTO: The winning numbers from yesterday’s weekly lotto draw were 8, 14, 18 and 23.
