JUNIOR HURLING.
Our junior hurlers were narrowly beaten by Emly in Golden on Friday last. This was a game of the proverbial two halves. The first half saw the
Emly boys open up a very commanding lead and they went in at the break ahead on the score 1-13 to 0-4. The second half saw a complete reversal
with the Kickhams men hurling out of their skins to come back level before losing out to a late point. The final score of 1-17 to 2-13 tell’s
its own story and both sets of supporters were treated to one almighty comeback that fell just short. Well done to our lads on their efforts
and we look forward to seeing them improving even more in the next round.
