Intermediate camogie through to county semi final
Well done to our intermediates on getting through to the county semi final. They played Clara in a very tough quarter final last Sunday 28th September.
From the throw in it was a tough, high intensity game. Clara were the first on the scoreboard with a point from their half forward line. Serious work from midfielders Aisling Dunphy and Laura Hennessy and the half back line meant the forwards were getting plenty of ball and the first score came from Laureena Murphy in the 8th minute. Soon after Antoinette Power followed with another. Read more

U12 Conahy Tournament 2014
Report by Martin Delahunty
Graigue Ballycallan U12 boys competed in the Jim Comerford Conahy tournament over the last 2 weekends. They were drawn in a group of 4 and played games against Bennettsbridge, Blacks and Whites and O’Loughlin Gaels. The boys put together 3 outstanding performances on the morning and beat all 3 teams convincingly. What impressed the coaches most was the first touch, great interlinking and hugely impressive finishing skills of all players. This meant that our boys topped their group and headed back to Conahy on Sunday to play Lisdowney in the semi final.
