With Storm Dennis acting the menace conditions would prove to be tough all around the country as a triple header of county games would take place on Sunday.

Wicklow Senior men got their second victory on the bounce meaning that they keep themselves in with a chance of gaining promotion from Division 4. We have four players on the panel in Captain Dean Healy, Paddy O’Keane, Niall Donnelly and Wayne Doyle.

It was announced during the week that Tommy Kelly will be our Senior football club captain for the 2020 season. Our senior management will be Casey O’Brien, Gary Duffy, Damien O’Brien, Alan O’Brien, Ronan Connolly, Adam Quinn and legend Chico Murphy. We wish everyone involved the best of luck and hopefully we will bring Miley home for third consecutiv­e year

Our own girls Clodagh Fox, Lucy Dunne and Megan Dunne were all part of the Senior ladies Division 3 clash against Kildare in Hawkfield. Unfortunat­ely, they lost the game in very tough conditions on a score line of 2-11 to 1-7.

Here in the club, Kate Hennessy will be our Senior ladies captain this season, alongside county player Clodagh Fox who will be vice-captain. Our senior Ladies management is manager Robert Hollingswo­rth, Lee Watters, Colly Byrne, Martin Byrne, Leona Franey and Jamie O’Boyle. We wish them all the best of luck.

Our ladies are urgently looking for an Intermedia­te manager for the season ahead. We hope to field an Intermedia­te team and we don’t want to lose this bunch of talented girls.

The Wicklow Senior hurlers got a good victory in the west, beating Mayo 1-16 to 1-13. It’s a result that helps their chances of survival in Division 2A. Andy and George O’Brien were our representa­tives on the team.

Our Senior hurling management for the upcoming season is manager Ray
