Wins for Gaultier, Tramore and An Rinn in Co Finals

U14 Finals

Saturday 7th June saw two finals being played at Killrossanty. First up was the 'A' final between Gaultier and Dungarvan which had a 12:30 throw-in. These teams had met twice before this season, once in the Feile semi-final and once in the league. On both occasions Gaultier won the matches but Dungarvan were the only team that Gaultier faced this season that managed to penetrate their defence and compile a respectable scoreline. History repeated itself when Gaultier went on to win the final but much credit must be given to Dungarvan.

The 'B' final followed the 'A' final with a 2pm throw-in and saw the unbeaten Lismore team take on Tramore. Tramore played Portlaw earlier in the week in the semi-final and prevailed on that occasion. On their previous meeting in the championship Tramore were unlucky not to beat Lismore a very tight game and it required a late goal for Lismore to seal the victory. The final proved to be an exciting match with Tramore prevailing on the minimum on a score of 3-04 to 3-03. 

Earlier in the week the U14 C final was played between An Rinn and Butlerstown. A very strong An Rinn side ultimately won this encounter.

Well done to all players for participating in this championship and even if you did not happen to win your section, we hope that the matches were enjoyable and look forward to seeing some of the girls participate in the U16 championships which will be starting shortly.

Best of luck to all players taking part in these matches. It is encouraging to see 18 different clubs fielding teams at this age group showing the rising popularity of the sport among girls. The clubs in Waterford are to be commended for the efforts at their respective clubs and there is no doubt that some of these players will go on to represent Waterford in the years ahead. 

Primay Schools Development Squad

A second round of primary development trials occurred last Thursday at Dungarvan GAA. The selectors have now informed the clubs of successful players. This squad of players will have its first blitz on Saturday 14th June in Rathkeale. The County Board would like to thank all players that attended these trials and the commitment shown.
