Our club had the honour of being one of the hoast venues for the first ever Ulster U16 9-a-side Hurling Blitz. The event had seen a large number of clubs withdraw in the week of the event with only 26 teams in total from all over the provence taking part. So it was a great to see our club as one of the playing teams.
We hosted Eoghain Rua (Derry) , Derrynoose (Armagh) and Lisnaskea (Fermanagh). Although missing a few of our regular 16 year olds the young boys on the day put up great performances and competed well with all teams. Eoghain Rua and Derrynoose qualified for the finals next Saturday.
The team was, Pauric O’Neill, Paul Hilly, Aiden O’Neill, Stephen Mullan, Michael Mullan, Tiernan Hughes, Matthew Sweeney, Jack Bevin, Ciaran McCance and Ronan Quinn.
A big thank you was received on the day from the Ulster Councils representitive and from the visiting teams in particular very impressed with 
the great playing surfaces.
Also a big thank you to Mary and Owen Roe O’Neill who looked after the teas.
