Dublin U21’s

Also on Wednesday evening Ross O’Carroll (0-2) and Shane O’Rorke helped Dublin to a 2-12 to 2-7 win over Kildare in the Leinster under 21 championship at Clane.  Unfortunately Shane had to retire with a broken collar bone and we wish him a speedy recovery.

 

Under 10’s

Monday 4th June 2007 saw the under 10’s bring a party of thirty one to Rosslare to play St Mary’s.  The visitors emerged victorious in the two games played and many thanks to our hosts for looking after to us so well.  Apart from the games one of the highlight was a conducted tour by Liam Griffin of St Mary’s splendid new complex.
