Fixtures & Results
Our U21 Hurlers take centre stage this weekend as they look to retain their U21 B Hurling Championship when they face Leixlip in Newbridge on Sunday with a 1pm throw-in. While Clane accounted for Kilcock in their semi-final a couple of weeks ago, Leixlip swept aside Coill Dubh in their semi-final fixture earlier this week to set up what should be a cracking final on Sunday.
Our U17 Footballers will be looking to make it 2 wins from 2 against Sarsfields this Saturday after recording a fine opening day victory over Celbridge last weekend by 3-20 to 1-12. The match throws-in at 3pm in Sarsfields this Saturday.
Best of luck to both teams this weekend! Please keep an eye on our web site or ClubZap for all the latest info on fixtures and results.
Congratulations to our U13 Camogie team on winning Division 2 last weekend with a fine victory over Maynooth in the final. Commiserations to our U21 Footballers who exited the championship at the Qtr-Final stage to Naas.
