The Junior A’s had a resounding win over Killanin in the first round of the Championship at Inverin on Saturday, July 19th last. The score was 3–8 to 1–6.

Junior B’s however were unable to complete the double and lost to Oughterard also at Inverin.

Minors: After beating Ml. Breathnach in the league final, expectations of a win in the Championship renewal were dashed by the same opposition who beat us convincingly by 1–13 to 0–6.

U14s defeated Mervue in a play-off for the league and went on to give a fine display when beating Spiddal at the Leisure Centre. In the semi-final they drew with Oranmore with a strong rally in an exciting finish. They lost the replay and Oranmore went on to beat Salthill in the final.
