Well done to Elphin/Ballinameen U13 team who had a good win over Eire Og in the Shane Beirne Shield semi final, they now play St Michaels/St Ronans in the Final this Wednesday at 7 pm in Tulsk. Best of luck team and management. All support is greatly appreciated.

3 out of 3 for Rounders Team

Congratulations and well done to the Elphin Ladies Rounders team who beat Knockainey on Sunday in Galway. This victory has made it 3 out of 3 for the ladies.
Next Sunday Elphin see two Limerick teams – St Kierans and Sporting Limerick travelling to Elphin to play a full day of Rounders. First pitch at 12pm where Elphin ladies take on St Kierans followed by the men and mixed teams against Sporting Limerick. A great day of Rounder promised. All support is welcome!

Great Progress on Facilities

The Orchard has lately seen some really excellent improvements. Our stand is nearly completed and we are having the official opening on the 2nd of August. More details of this to follow on this. The “Astro turf” pitch has also been dug out and is coming along nicely. We would also like to thank Darren Dockery and his team who have done great work with rewiring the old dressing rooms and fixing the flood lights.
