KILWORTH JUVENILE GAA CLUB NOTES

U11 HURLING

Last week, the U11s found themselves with some free time due to the cancellation of their scheduled game against Passage. Fortunately, Kiltha Óg came to our aid and invited us to join them in Dungourney for their games against Aghada on Saturday morning. Each of the three clubs brought two teams, resulting in a total of four games per team. Kiltha Óg's organization was impressive, ensuring that the games ran smoothly.

Our boys maintained their recent strong form against tough opponents, showcasing an excellent style of hurling with great effort. We've faced both Aghada and Kiltha Óg several times now, and given how closely matched we are, it's likely we'll continue to compete in similar divisions as the boys advance into graded competition.

A special shoutout goes to Roman for playing his first competitive game with the club, and to twins James and Bobby Hegarty—James scored two goals while Bobby made a spectacular point from distance. We extend our gratitude to Shane and the Kiltha Óg coaches for inviting us down.

U14 HURLING 

Last Friday night we travelled to play Na Piarsiagh in Cork City to keep our championship hopes alive.

On a pleasant, but windy evening, we took to the field determined to improve on our previous performance, and roared on by our passionate supporters, we delivered in spades.

Playing against the strong wind in the first half, we went in at half time with only Jason's goal separating the teams.

With the wind at our backs in the second half, we ran out deserving winners. We look forward to our next outing with this performance under our belts and with some players shining in new positions, most notably Dylan at half back, and our U13 players contributing well again. Tadgh with 13 points continues to lead the forward line, and most encouragingly we are increasing our scorers.

REBEL ÓG NORTH

Continued success to Darragh, JJ, Tadgh and Micheál, who contributed greatly to the Rebel Óg North development team with two victories over Tipperary development teams in Ballyhooly last Saturday.
