Mount Sion GAA Club Notes

 

Senior League

Cnoc Sion 0-18

Passage 0-10

The Seniors got the League campaign off to a winning start on Monday morning last with a victory against Passage in the club, a competitive first half saw the visitors go down to fourteen men though this wasn’t reflected on the scoreboard with both sides going in at 0-06 apiece, the second half saw Sion take advantage of the numerical superiority and finish out the game on a comfortable margin of 0-18 to 0-10.

Cnoc Sion 0-17

Clonea 0-17

Five days later on Saturday newly promoted Clonea were the visitors to the club and in a tough physical game which could have gone either way both sides had to settle for a share of the points, John and his team will be satisfied with the workrate and effort as they get ready for the Championship games coming up.

Senior Championship

Due to Waterford’s great run to the National League final next Sunday the first round of the Senior Club Championship has now been deferred until the following week when game two was down for decision, further details of the re-scheduled game will be posted as soon as they are available.

 

Deise Draw

The Deise draw for 2019 will commence on April 24th and continue the last Wednesday of every month for six months. Tickets as normal are €15 per month or €90 for the year. Fully paid up members will automatically get a ticket for all draws. We would encourage where possible that members also try to sell one ticket as this is a huge source of fundraising for the club.
