FIRIES BALLYHAR

COISTE NA NOG: under-eight and under-10 BOYS – Our under-eight and under-10 footballers will be having challenge games against Fossa this Friday evening, August 26, at Fossa GAA pitch. Players are asked to be there at 6.45 p.m. for games at 7 p.m. Hope to see you all there. Under-10 BOYS Our resilient under-10 boys travelled to Beaufort on Sunday, August 21, to face the home team in a sporting challenge. It was certainly an impressive day for our boys on the normally scenic Beaufort football pitch. The under-10s put in a feisty display against Beaufort in abysmal conditions and found the back of the net on a number of occasions. The panel included: Seán Galvin, Arron O’Sullivan, Cian Costello, Colm O’Riordan, Fionn Colman, Luke Henderson, Brian O’Leary, Henry Walsh, Eugene Deniel, Gerard O’Dowd, Gavin O’Sullivan, Jack Dicker, Eddie Og Scully, Micheál Fitzgerald and Sam Dennehy. Well Done Boys.
