School hall in Ballinlough

There were nine teams competing in this league

After 63 games one goal separated the Blues from the Cons in the Champions League Final on Saturday February 25^th.. What a morning’s hurling was enjoyed by all who attended! Virtually every match was a draw or just one goal separated the contestants. “City” were declared the winners of the Contenders Cup Final following three close games with the Rockies and United. The All-Blacks sprung a major surprise when they captured the Challengers Cup Final in the final game. The Rebels and the Rovers fought all the way.

It came down to the last match in the Champions League and the favourites the Blues were fortunate to scrape past the Cons by the narrowest of margins in an absorbing contest which had the huge crowd roaring in appreciation for the skill and commitment of the young Rockies. A presentation of medals and trophies by Victor Morgan of Mycro Helmets, Wayne Sherlock and Ronan Curran took place after each final.

Our thanks go to the 70 youngsters who took part and played their hearts out, to their parents for their wholehearted support and to the Blackrock coaches who made a massive contribution.

Coaches such as James Tyner, Tom Daly, Sean Logue, Paul Reidy, Don O’Callaghan, Peter Fitzgerald, Jimmy Brohan, John Kennedy, Tony Linehan and Jody Crowley ran off the competition in an efficient manner ensuring each player played in 14 matches. Jody Crowley and John Green did a magnificent job on the league tables and results. Our thanks to Victor Morgan of Mycro Helmets who sponsored the competition and to Mr Flor O’Sullvan, Principal of St.Anthony’s School for his cooperation.
