Lucan Sarsfields GAA Club Notes
November 18, 2019
CHAMPIONS –A massive well done to our U15A hurlers, who captured the 15a Championship title in Abbottstown yesterday, beating rivals Kilmacud Crokes 0-15 to 0-09, a great team performance, well done to Cathal Doody on his man of the match performance, and to the management team of Colm Farrell, Lenny McSweeney, John Kennedy, Anthony Doody and Matt McCaffrey. A good win as well on Saturday for our U21 footballers, resources were stretched with the AFL1 semi-final the next day but again the team showed great character to grind out the win. Unfortunately the Senior footballers lost out by 6 away to Ballyboden in the Semi-Final. The Minor A Camogie game was postponed; Minor C bounced back from an opening day loss to record a good win vs Commercials.
This week see our U21 hurlers in action, first up on Tuesday is the U21B as they take on Good Counsel in the Qtr Final at 8.30pm in Bohernabreena. Then on Saturday at 2pm in O'Toole Park, the U21A team contest the County Final vs NaFianna.
