Remember, if you are not a member you cannot train or play matches. Many thanks to juvenile club sponsors A Sportsman's Dream for their help at registration.

The under-14 hurlers got their year off to a start on Sunday morning last when they welcomed Sarsfields of Galway to MacDonagh Park for a challenge game in advance of the Tipp-Galway league game in Thurles.
After an enjoyable hour’s hurling, which saw all panel members get game time, the Westerners fought back to shade the honours in the end. Thanks to Michael Hallinan for taking charge of the whistle. Thanks also to the parents who provided and served up refreshments for both teams afterwards. Full training resumes on Saturday next from 11am to 12.15pm.
