Tullogher-Rosbercon
ROSBERCON UNITED FC
Rosbercon United got their season off to a flyer with a 9-0 win away to Curracloe United. With fantastic performances from top to bottom, it did not take long for the Rosbercon men to open the scoring through Jamie St Ledger. The goals kept coming and Rosbercon found themselves seven goals to the good at half-time. Two more goals followed in the second half through Barry Ryan and Jamie St Ledger and with that Rosbercon United are off to winning ways.
A fantastic performance with some great passing on show. Goalscorers: Jamie St Ledger (4), Kevin Doyle (3) and Barry Ryan (2).
ST MOLING’S WELL
The annual patron honouring St Moling was held in Mullinakill on Sunday, September 2. This was a break with tradition as the Mass is usually celebrated on the Sunday on or after August 20 each year. The reason for the change of date was the fact that Pope Francis was in the Phoenix Park Dublin on August 26. On a beautiful September day in 2018 the crowds assembled to hear Fr Liam Barron celebrate Mass in the historic site at Mullinakill where St Moling lived as a hermit many centuries ago. Great credit is due to the organising committee who have the whole area surrounding the Holy Well in great condition for this yearly event celebrating with great reverence the age-old patron of St Moling.

INTERMEDIATE HURLING
With high hopes of another victory in the Kilkenny Championship the Tullogher-Rosbercon team crashed to a four point defeat to Graigue/Ballycallan, 2-18 to 2-14 at a sunny Ballyhale. Never showing the form of their previous games they found themselves 12 points in arrears at one stage but a late rally cut the margin to four points but by then time was agains them and their chance of winning gone.
