Senior Hurling.
Co League
Our seniors put up a great display in the first half of their match away to Portroe and were deserving of their lead of 1-10 to 1-6 at half time. However almost within a minute of the restart the north reps had pulled level with a goal and a point. This really rattled our lads and unsettled them for a while, but they never gave up and matched their opponents in all positions, however it was the portroe team’s ability to take their goal chances that gave the final score a very lobsided look to what had been a cracking even tussle for a lot of the duration. The final score was Portroe 5-15 Kickhams 1-13.
