Report by Phil Maher
Graigue Ballycallan U10’s hosted Danesfort at Tom Ryall Park in Kilmanagh on Friday 17th May ably assisted by some brave boys from the U8’s. All were needed against a team that were spoilt for choice in the numbers they had available. Both clubs divided into two groups of ten players and each team rotated so that two hard fought games were played on a windy pitch. Everyone will learn from these hard fought games and in the long run it’s the Team effort that comes out on top! Read more

Declan Byrne Memorial Tournament – Sunday 12th June 2016
Report by Martin Delahunty
The annual U14 Declan Memorial Byrne Tournament took place on Sunday last in Tom Ryall Park. This was the first time the tournament was held on a Sunday and it proved to be a massive success.
A huge amount of preparation was put in by all over the 3 weeks leading to Sunday but they suffered a setback late on Thursday when one of the participating clubs had to withdraw. The U14 management approached a half dozen clubs but unfortunately none were available to fill the void. The decision was then made for the locals to field 2 teams in order for the Tournament to run on its original format and what a master stroke this proved to be.
