Juvenile County Doubles Championships. Our remaining represenitvies in the Juvenile County Doubles competition took to the alley Saturday past the 23rd in St.Mellans, Packie Mc Meel & Ryan Boyle proved too strong for the chasing pack as they took the title where they defeated Niall Corrigan & Bradley Maguire from Tydavnet in the final, the first game was a good tight game and possibly could have went anyway but the boys won it 15-13, in the 2nd Packie’s kills and serve just couldn’t be lived with and they took it 15-6, well done boys.
Cumann Na Bunscoil. Good luck to all our club members as the national schools throughout the county take part in the Cumann Na Bunscoil competition this Wednesday the 27th (Past), hope all enjoys the experience as sometimes this is the first experience that some have of the sport.
Adult County Single Championships. Good luck to all remaining players in the county championship, please ensure that all games are fulfilled, if a serious problem arises and a fixture can’t be fulfilled then you must contact the club secretary “Brendie” and then he will make contact with the county secretary to re-fix the game, “Do not leave a player standing in the alley waiting on YOU”.
