Mount Sion GAA Club Notes

Munster Championship

It was another big Munster Championship day in the club on Sunday last, although the result didn’t go Waterford’s way hopefully they can turn it around next week in Ennis, thanks to everyone who helped make the day go smoothly, from caterers and the club staff to everyone who helped out with stewarding duties.

A busy week for the Juvenile club, it was all systems go for our younger players as the Cup Blues Academy continued with great numbers attending, our Under 8 boys were in action on Saturday in the SETU complex in Carriganore taking part in a blitz playing matches against St Saviours, Cois Bríd, Portlaw, Ballyduff Lower, De la Salle and Sacred Heart.
The Under 10’s travelled to Wexford to play in the Eamon Laffan tournament in Glynn Barntown GAA, playing matches against De la Salle, Dicksboro, Glynn Barntown and the Rower Inistioge a great time was had by the boys, thanks to all the clubs, but especially to Glynn Barntown for inviting us and for the hospitality shown, thanks also to all the parents for their support.
