Elphin Ballinameen Underage Round-up

The U16 team qualified for the Division 3 Final with a good 6-16 to 2-8 win over Tulsk, on Thursday evening in Tarmonbarry. While the win was based on a good team performance the scoring exploits of captain John Finnerty cannot be overlooked who amassed a total of 4-10 on the night, with 4-5 from play. The Final, against Western Gaels, is on Saturday at 1pm in Tulsk.

The U12 Division 1 team have also reached a Final after winning all of their games in the Summer League. Details are TBC.

The U14’s will play St Brigids in the Division 2 Final in Lisnamult on Tuesday 22nd Oct at 7.30 pm.
