Looking back on 2016 Sion started out the campaign badly with losses against Fourmilewater and Roanmore, following the long summer break due to Waterford’s extended run in the All Ireland Championship they got back on track with a win over Cappoquin, another good victory over Abbeyside followed with Evan Curran making his mark on the senior scene scoring 3-04, a nervy draw against Tallow in Leamybrien ensured quarter final meeting with old rivals De La Salle.

In a cracking quarter final there was nothing between the sides after extra time and a replay was needed, in the replay Sion finally played to their potential seeing off the Cleaboy men to earn a semi final place against Ballygunner.

The semi final didn’t live up to it’s billing as Ballygunner were too strong for Sion as they marched on their way to a third County championship in three years.

In the League/Sargent cup we had some good wins with a number of players getting their chance to impress the management.

Overall this was a year with many challenges but with some positive points and with a young squad who can build on the experience for 2017.

Following the end of the season Ken and his team have decided to call it a day and at the AGM Nicholas Mackey was ratified as the new Senior manager, best wishes to Nicholas, Philly, Jim and Michael as they take on the challenge for 2017.
