Hard luck to Knockanann­a Champs bow out of Leinster

- CAMOGIE ROUND-UP at stadium xxyx

LEINSTER CHAMPIONSH­IP - Hard luck to Knockanann­a who played in the semi-final of the Leinster Club Championsh­ip. They bowed out on Sunday with a 2-18 to 1-02 defeat at the hands Johnstownb­ridge, Co Kildare. Well done to the mentors for their expertise and to the players for playing their hearts out on the day.

Under-8 and Under--10 Go Games Blitz - Twenty one teams from 11 clubs descended on the GAA Centre of Excellence in Ballinakil­l in fantastic conditions on Sunday morning for the last under-8 and under-10- Go Games Blitz of the season. Over 250 enthusiast­ic and noisy girls pucked, blocked, clashed, scored, chased, attacked, defended, fell over, got up and did more of the same! This was an impressive and colourful gathering of Wicklow’s Camogie future!

Well done to all parents/coaches/club officials involved with these girls all year. The Go Games is a programme of small-sided non-competitiv­e Camogie where girls are encouraged to experience ALL positions on the field and make as many mistakes as they like while learning the skills of our wonderful game.

Under-12 Blitz - And the under-12s had their end-of-season gathering in Ballinakil­l on Saturday. Teams from Annacurra, Knockanann­a, Carnew Emmets, Kilcoole, Ballinacor, Arklow Rock Parnells, Bray Emmets, DonardGlen, Avondale, Glenealy, Eire Og Greystones and Aughrim finished their season in style with excellent games.

Under-13 Autumn Cup - Next Saturday, it is the turn of the under-13s in the Autumn Cup, which will be held in Ballinakil­l also..

In the ‘A’ cup semi-finals, Kiltegan take on Avondale, and Aughrim line out against DonardGlen. The ‘B’ cup semi-finals pit Knockanann­a against Ballinacor and Carnew Emmets against Arklow Rock Parnells. And Kilcoole meet Eire Og Greystones in the Shield final.
