Welcome to this week’s news and lotto ezine
SENIOR HURLERS LOSE OUT TO BRAY: On Friday, Éire Og hosted an historic Senior Hurling Championship match between near neighbours Bré and Greystones. It certainly was not an occasion when the hurlers from these clubs were “wasting their sweetness on the desert air”. Quite a healthy crowd was on hand to witness their endeavours and one would venture that despite the outcome being that which all but the ill-informed would have predicted viz an emphatic victory for Emmets, the attendance would have counted itself satisfactorily entertained by the fare on offer.
U12 & U14 HURLERS IN ACTION Cill Chomhaill Gaels Under 14 hurling team, comprising players from Greystones, Kilcoole & Newtown made the long journey to Carnew on Wednesday last to play the hosts in our latest league match. Carnew, being the Féile winners, are regarded as the top team in the County at the moment but our lads weren't fazed in the least by this and went toe-to-toe with them from the throw in. It was a very close game right to the closing stages but a sending off (2 yellows) and a couple of injuries to our players meant we ran out of steam with a few minutes to go and Carnew ran up a few late scores to run out winners by 7 points.
On Monday evening last we mustered an Under 12 hurling team to make the short trip to Kilcoole to take on our friends and neighbours up there. Éire Óg put on a great display, particularly our 3 Under 10s who made their Under 12 debut - Fintan Potts, Frankie & Patrick Byrne. When the final whistle blew we were a few scores ahead.
GET WELL SOON GLEN RYDER: Best wishes go to Glen Ryder who, following a visit to Tallaght hospital on Thursday morning, had it confirmed that he fractured his arm following what appeared to be a totally innocuous fall during the U14 hurling match. Glen will be in cast for 4 weeks and we wish him well in his recovery and hope to see him back playing very soon. He has been a terrific player for us this year.
