Senior
Hurling
The senior hurlers play Thurles Sarsfields
on 6th June in Holycross in the final game of the group stage. The seniors played Toomevara in a county
league game on Sunday evening and after a spirited comeback in the second half
they came up just short losing on a score line of 2-14 to 1-14. See match
report on www.drominch.com.
They play Borrisoleigh in the county senior
league on Friday evening in the Ragg. (See fixtures for details)

Hurling
Our intermediates played Moyne Templetuohy
on Sunday morning and suffered a defeat on a score of 2-19 to 0-12. They now
play Grangemockler-Ballyneale in Grangemockler on Wednesday 26th May
knowing that a win is essential if we are to have aspirations of making the
semi final of the league.
Golf
Classic 2010
Reminder that the Drom-Inch GAA club golf
classic will take place in Rathdowney Golf club on Friday 16th July.
Anyone interested in organising it or entering a team contact Brian Boyle or
Pat Egan or any committee member. This proved to be a great day out for
everybody that played last year with some fantastic prizes on offer.
Field
Development:
In the past 2 weeks the club have installed
2 number dugouts in the field in Drom. This is a very welcome feature for the
field as it was very harsh on the children who were been exposed to the brunt
of the bad weather during recent games. The club would like to express their
thanks to Tom Kearney for manufacturing of them.
Juvenile

Under 6,U8’s, U10’s

Under 12:
Pride of place this week goes to our Under
12 A football champions after they defeated JK Brackens by 8 points to 3 points
in the Mid Final. This was a great team performance and they showed skill and
determination on their way to victory. This is a very historic occasion as it
is the first time in a number of years that we have won a football title in the
A grade. Huge thanks must go to the selectors and the coach who have done
trojan work with this panel of players. They now go forward to contest the
county semi final which will take place on Monday evening next.
The victorious panel was as follows:
Eoin Collins;
Shane Ryan, Robert Kennedy, Michael Clohessy; Andy Purcell, Paul Bergin, John
Ryan; Conor O’Meara, Aidan O’Meara; Caoimhe Bourke, Stephen Nolan, Aaron Ryan;
Ben Ahern, Pauric Campion (c), Glynn Stewart, Mark O’Brien, Orla Cahill, Jason

the second Mid final in a week.
