Waterford Camogie Notes - May 25 2014.


U14 Championships

This past week has seen the final rounds of the U14 championships and we now have the semi-final fixtures.

Section A

Gaultier top the table with maximum points with five wins from five matches. Dungarvan's win against Clonea/St. Molleran's means that they finish second. The final two positions for the semi-final were dependent on how other results went and the three teams in contention were St. Anne's, Brickey Rangers and De La Salle. The week started brightly for St. Anne's when them beat De La Salle which moved them into a semi-final spot. Unfortunately Brickey Rangers had to give a walkover to De la Salle which meant that they completed the semi-final places.

The semi-finals see Gaultier play St. Anne's and Dungarvan play De La Salle (first named team has home advantage) with the matches being played on Tuesday 27th May. The Dungarvan v De La Salle match is likely to be a close match as both teams drew during their previous encounter played at Gracedieu.

Section B

Lismore topped the B section, also having won all their matches. This section saw three teams finish on the same points, they were Modeligo, Portlaw and Tramore. A draw was made to see which teams would progress to the semi-final with the other two teams playing each other in a play-off. The play-off match sees Modeligo play Portlaw on Tuesday 27th May and the winner of this match will face Tramore in the semi-final on Tuesday 3rd June 

Section C

Section C sees a straight final with the top two teams facing each other. These teams are An Rinn and Butlerstown and will be played on Tuesday 3rd June.

Best of luck to all players involved.

Upcoming ​Fixtures

The Fixtures committee are in the process of preparing the fixtures for Senior, Intermediate, Junior, Non County Player League, Minor, U16 and U12 championships and should be available over the next few weeks. 

Championship Sponsorship

The Waterford County Camogie Board are looking for potential sponsors of these championships. Do you know a company/business that would be interested in partnering with us?

Camogie in Waterford is a growing sport and we have 20 clubs spread through-out the county with in excess of 1200 registered players that could be used to promote a local business. If interested in such a proposal then please contact pro.waterford.camogie@gaa.ie for further details.

EDIT (Not included in notes sent to the local papers). If there is any business willing to help the Waterford County Camogie Board with Sponsorship, if a business card is forwarded to me, I will add the details on the card free of charge on all articles I will do up on camogie on my blog for the rest of the year.  (keanethomas@eircom.net).

Also, if any club that covers women’s sport (it does not matter what sport) that want to get extra publicity, email me your notes and I will upload them on here for you. If it gets extra people interested in women’s sports, it might be worth it.
