Congratulations to our winners: Cup – Killinkere A, Shield – St Mary’s, Trophy – Mullahoaran, Plate – Gowna. Thanks again to all clubs who travelled and took part!

Our U16s put in a great effort away to Southern Gaels on Monday, 5th May in Round 5 of the Division 2 League. Despite a strong showing, the lads came out on the wrong side of a high-scoring game: Southern Gaels 5-12 – 3-13 St. Colmcille’s. Plenty of positives to build on going forward.
Best of luck to our Minor team as they take on St. Patrick’s Óg in Round 4 of the U18 Development Series this Monday, 12th May at 7:30pm in Fr. McGee Park. All support welcome!
Well done to our U12s who delivered a superb performance last Friday, 9th May with a dominant win over Clonguish Gaels in Allen Park: Clonguish Gaels 0-4 – 0-29 St. Colmcille’s.
