On behalf of St Patricks GAA Club treasurer James Phelan thanked Wicklow Golf Club and Captain Tony Michaels for all their assistance on the day and the ground staff who had the course in excellent condition.

Thank you to John Doyle for all his help on the day in getting teams out and recording score cards. Thank you to all the sponsors on the day especially our main sponsor – SHARERIDGE.

Congratulations to Layla Hitchen who is the under-14 girl’s player of the month for May!

The next generation of hurling stars were enjoying themselves at training on Wednesday night. Of course only two can grab the coveted player of the week awards! Up this week were Tommy Morrissey under-7 and Leon Lawless under-6 - well done boys
