The boys have now qualified for the latter stages of the U12 hurling league. There was frustration for the boys when mondays game against Inniskeen was cancelled at the last minute. Training continues on Wednesday evenings at 6.15pm in Concra. Further match details will be forwarded by text.

A huge well done to U12 player David Irwin, who played during the half time game at the recent All Ireland semi-final between Dublin and Cork. David was a credit to his school and his club and hopefully will some day grace the pitch again for Monaghan.

The U-16s played Inniskeen last Monday night in the league and came away with a good win to guarantee a place in the semi-finals next Monday night.

Best for Blayney on the night were James Lavelle, James Carville in defence, Alan Nugent and Sean Duffy in mid-field and Francis Connolly, James Wilson and Brandon Rice in forwards.

Seniors 

The Seniors returned to winning ways this week when they beat Kileavy in there last match of the Armagh league . This win secured top spot for the

Team and hopefully will be playing in Div 2 next year. In the Monaghan league we played Truagh last Thursday night in what was dreadful weather conditions.

Despite this they secured another win to guarantee a place in the semi-finals. Tonight the seniors are away to Monaghan Harps in the last round of the league.

Last week was a very busy week for Castleblayney Hurling Club.

The sun shined and the crowds came out for what turned out to be a fantastic  day last Friday at the family fun day. With plenty of games and fun for all on the day the main attraction was the CENTRA hurling simulator which attracted a large crowd . The two top competitors were Hugh Byrne and Mickey Mc Hugh and the battle of the chairman’s.  Stephen Dignam who had being in training for a couple of weeks for this competition beat Jarlath . It is rumoured that Stephen is togging out tonight for the Harps match.  The Club would like to thank Pete Mc Mahon and Ray Mc Ardle for organising the day and all those who helped make the day a success.

On Sunday the club brought fifty of our juvenile players to Croke Park to witness Clare and Limerick play in the All Ireland Hurling semi-final. Aged from 7 to 14, it provided our young club members the opportunity to witness the game on its biggest stage and they enthusiastically embraced the occasion urging both teams on. Castleblayney Hurling Club is always keen to promote our ancient game and new members are always welcome. A huge thanks is due to Pete McMahon and all our sponsors for making last weekend possible.

The Club would like to wish the County Minor Footballers all the best in the ALL-Ireland  semi-final on Sunday .

 We would like to wish the Camogie Senior team the best of luck in next weeks County Final.

We would also like to wish every success to the Faughs who are running a very large  Gathering event this weekend .
